By default, other than tty1 (via
"/etc/systemd/system/getty.target.wants/getty@tty1.service"), VTs are
started dynamically as needed.

If you want tty2 to be available permanently and persistently through
reboots, run:

systemctl enable getty@tty2.service
systemctl start getty@tty2.service

The first command will create a
"/etc/systemd/system/getty.target.wants/getty@tty2.service" symlink to
"/lib/systemd/system/getty@.service", which is more or less similar
to, in the case of a hypothetical getty@tty2 sysvinit script, having
"update-rc.d enable getty@tty2" create
"/etc/rc{2,3,4,5}.d/Sabgetty@tty2" and "/etc/rc{0,6}.d/Kcdgetty@tty2"
symlinks to "/etc/init.d/getty@tty2".
