If the network-range-type is set to RFC1918, a VELOS system controller will fail to PXE boot from its peer system controller, reporting an error message "Unable to locate configuration file".
Unable to PXE boot the system controller.
- The Internal Chassis Networking range (network-range-type) is set to RFC1918 (the default is RFC6598).
Log into the peer controller (the one NOT being PXE booted) as root, and navigate to the /var/images/pxelinux.cfg directory. In the directory, locate the file whose name is six hex characters ("0a", followed by two digits, followed by "07"), and rename the file to uppercase. For example: [root@controller-1(VELOS):Active ~]# cd /var/images/pxelinux.cfg/ [root@controller-1(VELOS):Active pxelinux.cfg]# ls -l 0a* -rwxr--r--. 2 root root 352 Oct 7 15:14 0ae107 [root@controller-1(VELOS):Active pxelinux.cfg]# mv 0ae107 0AE107 [root@controller-1(VELOS):Active pxelinux.cfg]#
