HI Arif, Thanks for contributing the idea and code. xCAT development team reviewed the code and agreed that this is nice feature for xCAT 2.9. So could you please go ahead and checkin the code to xCAT 2.9?
Several other things need to consider:
1. Do we want to make the consoleondemand be a node attribute? If yes, we
can update the arry @nodeattrs in the Schema.pm, the array includes all the
node attributes are used by *def commands.
2. We might want to update rcons manpage to indicate this new option.
3. Jarrod Johnson is working on a new module to replace the 3rd party
conserver, the current plan is to include this in xCAT 2.9. xCAT
development team will take care of this when we decided to put the new
module in.
Thanks,

Further from my email earlier
An update on my patch, below are some commands, that should give an
indication that this is working on my test box
[root@mg01 xCAT_plugin]# lsdef -t site clustersite -i consoleondemand
Object name: clustersite
consoleondemand=yes
[root@mg01 xCAT_plugin]# nodels node009 nodehm.consoleondemand
node009: 0
[root@mg01 xCAT_plugin]# ps -ef |grep node009
root 24187 23331 3 22:34 pts/1 00:00:00
perl /opt/xcat/share/xcat/cons/ipmi node009
root 24191 22386 9 22:34 ? 00:00:00 xCATd SSL: getipmicons to
node009 for root@localhost
root 24192 24191 0 22:34 ? 00:00:00 xCATd SSL: getipmicons to
node009 for root@localhost: ipmi instance
root 24195 21649 0 22:34 pts/0 00:00:00 grep node009
[root@mg01 xCAT_plugin]# ls -lh /var/log/consoles/ | grep node009
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 23K Jan 29 22:37 node009
So this shows that only node009 in my demo cluster has a process for the
console, and that the /var/log/consoles/node009 has been updated to reflect
that

Subject: [xcat-user] consoleondemand for only some nodes?
Hi all,
Is it possible to have site.consoleondemand=yes for most
nodes, but for
a few have the console permanently connected? I like the idea
of having
some of the consoles be connected all of the time due to the
console
logging in /var/log/consoles. I don't want to have to have a
screen
session always open for those consoles though just to get
this behavior.
Thanks!
