Thank you, that's made a difference. The Graylog2-Server isn't

tried to get a serial console working but it didn't work earlier
today when I tried. Probably because this OSDB box is a virtual
server running in VMware.
IIRC you can create "virtual" serial for a VM, then you have to
whitelist the location on the host (stupid VMWare).

If there's netcat/socat on the host you could tunnel it via ssh.

Maybe something like this (untested)

        ssh esxi "netcat -U /path/to/virtual_serial.sock" | \
        socat STDIO TCP-LISTEN:5500
        telnet localhost 5500

Thanks Jirib. I will give this a try later.
