Hi,

I moved whole system from another physical machine to another.
I made it through using fsarchiver (a great tools for backup FS ;) ) with option savefs

the process of transferring data passed without a problem. I installed from scratch grub2 and make a new config file.
system got up without any problem, services work - great!
but...
and here is the problem because from time to time without cause hangs my server, and the only thing I see in console its magic
init[1]: Id "c1" respawning too fast: disabled for 5 minutes
repeated endlessly. The only solution is to reboot the server..

There is my question - how resolv that? where can be a problem?

There is my config file
Code:

############# /etc/inittab
# Default runlevel.
id:3:initdefault:

# System initialization, mount local filesystems, etc.
si::sysinit:/sbin/openrc sysinit

# Further system initialization, brings up the boot runlevel.
rc::bootwait:/sbin/openrc boot

l0:0:wait:/sbin/openrc shutdown
l0s:0:wait:/sbin/halt -dhnp
l1:1:wait:/sbin/openrc single
l2:2:wait:/sbin/openrc nonetwork
l3:3:wait:/sbin/openrc default
l4:4:wait:/sbin/openrc default
l5:5:wait:/sbin/openrc default
l6:6:wait:/sbin/openrc reboot
l6r:6:wait:/sbin/reboot -dkn
#z6:6:respawn:/sbin/sulogin

# new-style single-user
su0:S:wait:/sbin/openrc single
su1:S:wait:/sbin/sulogin

# TERMINALS
#x1:12345:respawn:/sbin/agetty 38400 console linux
c1:12345:respawn:/sbin/agetty 38400 tty1 linux
c2:2345:respawn:/sbin/agetty 38400 tty2 linux
c3:2345:respawn:/sbin/agetty 38400 tty3 linux
c4:2345:respawn:/sbin/agetty 38400 tty4 linux
c5:2345:respawn:/sbin/agetty 38400 tty5 linux
c6:2345:respawn:/sbin/agetty 38400 tty6 linux

# SERIAL CONSOLES
s0:12345:respawn:/sbin/agetty -L 115200 ttyS0 vt100
#s1:12345:respawn:/sbin/agetty -L 115200 ttyS1 vt100

# What to do at the "Three Finger Salute".
ca:12345:ctrlaltdel:/sbin/shutdown -r now



and output from ps aux |grep getty
Code:

- Yes, I use a serial console for TERM
- and for extra security also use ikvm connection ;)
- I do not have access to the machine physically

Sounds like you have no physical console virtual terminals set up in the kernel for your server? Do you want to login to console and use it?

CONFIG_VT and associated?

If you don't have or need the virtual consoles, you can remove the lines from inittab.

Code:
# zcat /proc/config.gz |grep CONFIG_V
CONFIG_VT=y
CONFIG_VT_CONSOLE=y
CONFIG_VT_CONSOLE_SLEEP=y
CONFIG_VT_HW_CONSOLE_BINDING=y


If I remove virtual consoles (#TERMINALS) then the server didin't boot - unpack kernel from GRUB Menu and nothing - screen dark, the server is not responding to ICMP

Usually the "respawning too fast" warning is when the init program dies too quickly, in this case it's agetty. You should only be getting no more than 1 warning every 5 minutes...

If that virtual terminal actually works (c1, i.e., /dev/tty1) then likely your ... keyboard emulator (KVM?) is sending characters to end your logins prematurely? I don't know your exact physical setup.

If /dev/tty1 does not work at any time, even after fresh boot, then perhaps your agetty binary is broken or, as you have seemed to verify OK, your /dev/ttyX virtual terminals are broken...
