Haven't seen this behavior. The serial console is, by default, given to the
BMC/service processor. I haven't had any real problems (other than ELOM's
interface sucking) with it. It *is* annoying you can't upgrade the 2100s to
ILOM, though.
The core problem ELOM had initially is it defaulted to stupid port speeds, and
was bound to ttyb instead of ttya. ILOM/ELOM speed has been unified for a while
now, thankfully. Initial runs were pretty broken, though. The ttya/ttyb
divergence between X2100 and X4xxxs is still true, and can't (afaik) be
changed on the 2100s.
As I said, I do have it redirectly properly:
