Hello all,
Is U-Boot able to log its actives etc to a machine accessible via the network?
Desirable -> U-Boot being able to log all its boot up info and details regarding booting it's OS image etc (ie everything sent to stdout) to a file on a remote machine.
Scenario - multiple deployments all housed in sealed units on a LAN. Network based monitoring is the only option.
It would be extremely useful if each platform could provide its status over the network so that any problems regarding boot up could be easily seen.
I'm sure I read somewhere that UDP logging is available in U-Boot but information on this doesn't seem to be hugely available.
I've got netconsole running via netcat on a host pc but this is console only and is not ideal for a multi-platform deployment model. Although, saying that, I suppose that doing 'set ncip <server ip>' and 'set stdout nc' and running netcat on a host pc would provide some level of diagnostics.
Is anybody able to offer any advice or strategy here for similar requirements?
Much appreciated.
