Console

See what’s happening to your virtual device under the hood.

See everything

The Console tab provides convenient web access to the console of your virtual device. You can use the Console to see system and kernel logs (including SELinux violations) and to quickly run commands without needing to connect over SSH.

Unless different is specified, for devices running the Linux OS it corresponds to the Linux console, and for devices with bare-metal applications it corresponds to the serial console.

Download logs

Use the DOWNLOAD LOG button to save the current console output as a text file.

Filter messages

The console can sometimes be flooded with system and kernel logs, making it difficult to use interactively. If you’re using the console interactively, you can run dmesg to prevent all messages, except emergency messages.

How to use the Console

All AVH devices include an interactive line where you can give commands to the virtual device. This allows for convenient access to the device without having to use your console application.

Click inside the console -> press Tab twice.
