Is the pxecontroller IP active on your management interface? For example (if your management isn't on a vlan): controller-0:/home/wrsroot# grep management_interface /etc/platform/platform.conf management_interface=eno2 controller-0:/home/wrsroot# grep pxecontroller /etc/hosts 169.254.202.2 pxecontroller controller-0:/home/wrsroot# ip addr show eno2 | grep 169.254.202.2 inet 169.254.202.2/24 scope global eno2 If not, is the pxeboot-ip service in SM active? controller-0:/home/wrsroot# sm-dump |grep pxe pxeboot-ip enabled-active enabled-active Cheers, Don. -----Original Message----- From: Penney, Don Sent: Wednesday, May 01, 2019 9:54 AM To: 'Sun, Austin'; Marcel Schaible; starlingx-discuss@lists.starlingx.io Subject: RE: [Starlingx-discuss] 2nd node stuck at pxe installation The pxecontroller address is purposefully on a separate subnet. Our networking team could provide a better answer, but I believe it was due to issues with pxeboot and VLANs. This address should absolutely be available from the installer. -----Original Message----- From: Sun, Austin [mailto:austin.sun@intel.com] Sent: Tuesday, April 30, 2019 10:59 PM To: Penney, Don; Marcel Schaible; starlingx-discuss@lists.starlingx.io Subject: RE: [Starlingx-discuss] 2nd node stuck at pxe installation Hi Penny : Thanks a lot. some update from my side. From log Dracut [1]; squashfs.img was not successfully download on controller-1. And the ip on controller-1 during pxe boot was 192.168.204.4 , if use curl command "curl http://192.168.204.2:8080/feed/rel-19.01//LiveOS/squashfs.img -o mytest.img" can successfully download squashfs.img . But if running command "curl http://pxecontroller:8080/feed/rel-19.01//LiveOS/squashfs.img" , it will failed. From controller "nslookup pxecontroller" , the pxecontroller ip addr is 169.254.202.2 , not mgmt ip(192.168.204.2). so it will make sense pxecontroller can not be accessed by controller-1(pxe boot stage). If hack sysinv-conductor manager.py change pxecontroller to mgmt. ip (192.168.204.2) and restart sysinv-conductor, then the controller-1 can be installed successfully. BTW: This issue is 100% reproducible on certain servers, but not for all kinds of servers. [1] http://paste.openstack.org/show/750134/ [2] http://paste.openstack.org/show/750135/ Thanks.

Since the console showed "Loading rel-19.01/installer-initrd...........ready", it seems like the TFTP transfer was fine, which is why I suggested modifying the console setting to ensure you're seeing what's happening. This is what I'd expect to see if the console is set to serial, but there's no serial console attached (such as using virtual box without a serial console). For example, you can see the bzImage and initrd here being transferred via TFTP in daemon.log: 2019-04-26T16:27:34.000 controller-0 dnsmasq-tftp[96915]: info sent /pxeboot/rel-19.01/installer-bzImage to 192.168.202.24 2019-04-26T16:27:36.000 controller-0 dnsmasq-tftp[96915]: info sent /pxeboot/rel-19.01/installer-initrd to 192.168.202.24 followed by the squashfs.img in /www/var/log/lighttpd-access.log: 192.168.202.24 pxecontroller:8080 - [26/Apr/2019:16:28:12 +0000] "GET /feed/rel-19.01//LiveOS/squashfs.img HTTP/1.1" 200 368152576 "-" "curl/7.29.0" If only the bzImage and initrd is transferred, without seeing the logs on console, my guess would be an unsupported NIC preventing the initrd from accessing the management network in order to request the squashfs.img (which provides the installer rootfs) -----Original Message----- From: Marcel Schaible [mailto:marcel@schaible-consulting.de] Sent: Tuesday, April 30, 2019 10:46 AM To: starlingx-discuss@lists.starlingx.io Subject: Re: [Starlingx-discuss] 2nd node stuck at pxe installation Hi, we have the same problem with the image from 20190411.

You can set the console either via the web browser in the installation parameters, or at command-line, such as: system host-update 2 personality=controller console=
The default is the serial console, "ttyS0,115200". If you're using a graphical console, you can set it blank, or console=tty0, for example. This should allow you to see if there are some errors occurring trying to load the installer.

Hi all, I try to do duplex deploy, and find controller-1 stuck at pxe installation step. The screen stuck at "Loading rel-19.01/installer-initrd...........ready". But package installation is not started as host-show command shown in controller-0. I meet this issue with latest code. Do you know what cause the issue, or how to debug it? Thanks.
