I seem to recall that quite a long time ago--maybe 5 years now--there
was discussion of doing clustering/HA stuff with Linux guests that
used vCTCs as serial devices.  Maybe this could do what you want:
Define one octopus guest, the console server, with dozens of CTC
pairs, each coupled to one other guest, and for each connected guest,
have that guest use the CTC serial device as its console.



Better yet, make them PVM clients over the CTC, and map that PVM session
as /dev/console. Then you get all the cool automation stuff and
multisession support of PVM as well.

But doesn't that limit it to line mode again?  If so, what the heck
would be the point?
