R81.20 Management server / Hyper-V / INIT: Id “S0” respawning to fast: disabled for 5 minutes

[NilsKS]

Hi,

I have installed a fresh R81.20 Gaia Management server on a Gen. 2 Hyper-V VM.

Messages like the one below appear on the console:

INIT: Id “S0” respawning to fast: disabled for 5 minutes

In /var/log/secure:

There is no serial device on the VM.

/bin/console_agetty reports TTTYS as 'SERIAL'.

Ignore these messages or what?

Best,

Found a similar error in sk122322: Gateway in AWS reports errors in /var/log/secure or in /var/log/messages

[NilsKS]

Thanks, already checked this out. No help there, I am afraid...

Best,

Check Point Gaia OS support for Hyper-V states that Gen 2 are not supported.

I mainly use Hyper-V for lab environment and always in Gen 1 without issues.

[NilsKS]

You are right! A consultant recommended Gen.2 as this supposedly was supported in R81.20.I did not check.

Reinstalled as Gen. 1.

Thanks!

Best,

Nils
