The serial terminal, I'm doing the installation remotely.

And I do see some messages right after the boot, but then, nothing else

I've enclosed a log of the boot process taken from the serial console.

Hi ,Nicolas
       I see that the message output with the driver ,so question here

1: do you have any GPU install in this server

indeed there are two Nvidia GPU installed.

2: can you try to disable the nouveau on os install ?


In fact I already tried that, the messages disappears on the console, but still 
the server doesn't boot further.

And also, the first time I somehow managed to install the server, I did it 
without changing the default kernel options.

The "rcons" console supposedly works because I can use it if I boot the server 
on the local drives (it has been installed once using xcat).

I suspect I might have hanged something inadvertently, but cannot find what 
causes the server not to boot further when re-installing it ...

I recall there is maybe a way to "ssh" into the server while it is installing, 
but couldn't make it work (it is CentOS 7.3).


Method to disable the dirver
R::rd.driver.blacklist=nouveau R::nouveau.modeset=0 Example for
node01 [root@mgt ~]# tabdump bootparams
#node,kernel,initrd,kcmdline,addkcmdline,dhcpstatements,adddhcpstatem

Subject: [External] [xcat-user] HP DL380 Gen9 and xCat

Hello,

I'm trying to install a HP Proliant DL380 Gen9, in "Legacy BIOS" mode.

The server has been integrated into xcat, but every time I try to install it 
(nodeset osimage), the server boots, download the initrd, and nothing happens.

When I launch the console (rcons), it looks like "stuck", without any messages 
beside these:

I know this has worked, because the server could be installed once.
But now I try to re-install it, and nothing happens.

I setup xcat in debug mode (1), but there are no specific messages into the 
logs.

What could I look for in order to debug this installation?


Thanks.
