thanks Jarrod!!!!
I am not looking for node provisioning etc. I only want console to be
working using wcons which uses simple ipmi.... is it possible in Esxi 4.1
U1?
i can access IMM through web but again i don't have key to get console
access hence tried doing it with xCAT.
console setup works well on Linux.
Thanks
Tanweer
