vyos - error message "respawning too fast"

  • 772

Just pulled down the ISO for the latest stable vyos today, 1.1.8, and ran on my Mac under VirtualBox. It emits this message about every 5 minutes:

INIT: Id "TO" respawning too fast: disabled for 5 minutes

What is that about?

    Enter the router configuration mode and execute the following commands:

    # delete system console device ttyS0
# commit
# save
# exit

    After that just reboot the system. This error is because if you were to install VyOS in a hardware appliance a serial port is required before you can connect via SSH but since you're running it on a VM you don't need the ttys0. Hope it helps!
