Thanks

Hi!

That's another issue I'm also having. The output console only gives me some
Progress Code or strange characters, so I need to go over the graphic
console to get the real information (but then I lose the log of what was
done). Therefore, I'm not able get the init messages.

root@tam:~# rcons derrial
[Enter `^Ec?' for help]
done
Connection to bchmm closed.

system> console -o -T blade[12]
PROGRESS CODE: V11007 I0^M
PROGRESS CODE: V3048005 I0^M

      I see that you are using an Avocent, but you have a serial console
      configured for the node as well. Are there any additional init
      messages going over the serial console that show additional
      information? For RH/CentOS (and I am assuming Ubuntu here as well),
      init messages will be sent to the last terminal listed in your kernel
      command line. You have the serial port listed last.

            Hi!

            I'm trying to deploy Ubuntu in a few compute nodes. I have
            tried both pxe and xnba as netboot, in both cases I got the
            booting hanging at some part.

            For pxe, the compute node had the ip set by dhcp correctly and
            was able to download the necessary pxe files using tftp. It
            downloaded initrd.gz and vmlinuz and it started the
            installation process, hanging in the middle of it (see pic 1
            attached).

            For xnba, it also hangs trying to download the elilo-x86.efi
            file, at 31% . I've tried that for different compute nodes and
            they had the same behavior (see pic 2).
            Log in the mn :
            Mar  6 13:54:43 tam in.tftpd[21959]: RRQ from 9.114.219.49
            filename /xcat/elilo-x64.efi

            0000:16:00.1: Out of MCCQ wrbs

            After some time, it restarts the cn and try to pxe boot it
            again, but it gives me those messages in the mn (be2net Out of
            MCCQ wrbs, which looks like network issues).

            Any help or insights is appreciated!
