@ -151,6 +151,17 @@ The web console can be configured in Bare Metal service in the following way:
``false``, ``console_info`` is ``None``, web console is disabled. If you want to launch web
console, see the ``Configure node web console`` part.
.. note::
An error message you may encounter when enabling the console can read
``Console subprocess failed to start. Timeout or error while waiting for
console subprocess to start for node`` along with
``[server] Failed to find any available port!``. This error is coming from
shellinabox itself, not from the communication with the BMC. One potential
cause for this issue is that there are already shellinabox daemons running
which block the configured port (remove them if appropriate and retry to
enable the console).
