If using 240G SATA HD as the boot disk, the storage might not be enough.

At least, in our virtual environment, the boot disk has to be larger than 250 GB.

Hi Cindy,

This image was build by myself, fetched on 24th Jan.

It is working normally in my VM enviroment but failed on the bear metal server.

My server is Huawei RH2288v3: E5-2630 v3@2.4GHz, 2*8cores, 16*8G DDR4 RAM, 2*900G SAS+2*240G SATA HD.

Thanks

HI, Tim,

Can you please provide the following info:

- Exact version of the StarlingX: if you downloaded it from Cengen, please provide the link; if you built it by yourself, please provide the date on master.

- Your HW config for your bare metal server. Our recommended HW config can be found here: https://docs.starlingx.io/installation_guide/index.html

Thanks. - cindy

Hi,

I am trying to deploy starlingx on a bearmetal server, but failed, 

After execute "sudo config_controller" and some default configuration confirmed(all-in-one, simplex),  exception printed as below:

01/08: Creating bootstrap configuration ... DONE

Failed to execute bootstrap manifest

Configuration failed: failed to apply bootstrap manifest. See /var/log/puppet/latest/puppet.log for details.

I had deployed successfully on a qemu VM with same image, also all-in-one and simplex.

Is there any configurations missed for the bear metal server? I had recovered all BIOS configurations to default for it.

Could anyone help me to fix it?

Thanks
