I never could figure out esxi 4, but xcat should do it for you with esxi 5 just by setting nodehm. One exception,. Install time redirection is currently skipped as, for some reason, the installer was crashing when I tried it.

Subject[xcat-user] xCAT:: getting wcons working for Esxi 4.1 U1


Hi, 
We have xCAT setup where we use wcons ( which works through IPMI). ALL Linux (RHEL 5 U5) servers are showing console if i do wcons 'hostname'
Now i have installed Esxi 4.1 U1 and i can't get console working. console works fine till initial boot ( rpower)  of server. once control passes over to Esxi i don't see anything on console it's just blank,  
I changed couple of settings on linux server for ex:- added ttyS0 115200 vt100 entries under /etc/inittab
I am not sure what to add under Esxi in order to get this working. is there any change for COM settings for Esxi?

Any help on this?
