Did you do "Setup Network Boot" in the MAC collection step since you
are PXE booting?


yes.

Is trying the BootCD an option?



unfortunately no.
diskette only on the compute nodes

Hi Neil:

So you're saying that all defined clients have an assigned IP address but
when they boot they cannot get a DHCP lease?



yes.
the dhcpd.conf lists all MAC addresses and has an IP for them

i see the client requesting the lease
i see the offer (on the head nodes log)
but the clients do not get the IP.

same hardware on FC3 and OSCAR 4.2 is fine.

/nc




The MONITOR_SERVER ip address shouldn't really matter in this case.

Cheers,

Bernard

Subject: [Oscar-devel] oscar 5.0r4630-20060424 / FC5 / client etherboot
issue




hi,

i'm testing the latest thunk oscar 5.0r4630-20060424 on fedora core 5
and i'm having client etherboot issues

i'm using an etherboot image that worked on oscar 4.2 with FC3
my NICs are 3com 3c905CX-TXM

the 'scan for MAC address' works.
the /etc/dhcpd.conf looks OK (all MACs assigned right names etc.)

i can see the DHCP lease offer from the headnode in /var/log/messages
(eg.
"
Apr 24 11:26:14 pg-207 dhcpd: DHCPDISCOVER from 00:04:76:18:b6:1e via eth1
Apr 24 11:26:14 pg-207 dhcpd: DHCPOFFER on 10.10.1.8 to
00:04:76:18:b6:1e via eth1
"
the client etherboot continues to say ". No IP address"

i can modify the dhcpd.conf to add a new mac and then i can add my
powerbook to the internal interface and it gets a lease successfully
(obviously not a systemimage boot)


not sure if it is relevant but
one thing i noticed is that when i look at the
/tftpboot/pxelinux.cfg/default
i see that the external interface of the head node is referenced
"
APPEND vga=extended initrd=initrd.img root=/dev/ram
MONITOR_SERVER=136.206.19.207
"

any ideas ?

/nc
