[Starlingx-discuss] Deployment Option (error: compute boot in loop)

[Hu, Yong]

I saw you enabled VT-D, how about VT-x in BIOS?

Another possibility is that your ethernet NIC is not compatible with OVS/DPDK.
Please follow these steps, to dig out more info

  1.  lock your compute-node
  2.  ssh to your compute-node and check OVS/DPDK status by “sudo ovs-vsctl show” and “python /usr/share/openvswitch/scripts/dpdk-devbind.py --status”

Hi Yong,

I checked server BIOS setting Intel VT-D is enabled in my compute machine
compute machine is rebooting only after unlocking, Before reboot it came in unlocked, enabled & online.

Please suggest how can i debug this.

Many Thanks,
Himanshu Goyal

Intel_iommu=on and immmu are for PCI PT and SR-IOV, as far as I know.
There are other 2, like VT-x and VT-d flags, to be enabled. Please have a look in BIOS.
