Did you ping it from some place other than the same subnet it is on? Perhaps the default gateway isn't set?
-----Original Message----- From: Linux on 390 Port [mailto:LINUX-390@VM.MARIST.EDU] On Behalf Of van Sleeuwen, Berry Sent: Tuesday, December 19, 2017 8:23 AM To: LINUX-390@VM.MARIST.EDU Subject: [LINUX-390] SLES12 SP3 autoyast install Hi All, I am installing a new SLES 12 SP3 system. So first I run a manual install. After install is completed the machine is rebooted. So far no problem. After reboot the system is accessible as expected. So now I run yast2 clone_system to create an autoinst.xml file. Next I use the autoinst.xml file to run an automatic install. The autoyast installer runs through the install. Next the machine is rebooted. The guest states sshd is started so I should be able to connect to the machine. The IP address is registered in the vswitch and I can ping the machine. But I can’t access the system for the second stage install, the ssh session simply times out. I have used various versions of the xml file. Both the base as created by yast2 and a file that has been rebuild to add options we want to have from within the autoyast installation. It looks like the installation is executed correctly but no luck accessing the machine after reboot with any of the attempts. I have done the same with SLES 12 SP2 and found no such problems. What could be the cause of this?
