BL890 i4 issues with ignite

can anyone tell me if there is something different that has to be done when trying to boot a bl890 i4 from an ignite server?

 

I got into the shell and use the same boot process i have used with all the other servers and the bl890's dont seem to find the ignite server.

 

I have done this for years, I just loaded 4 new bl860 i4 and it worked fine, but the bl890's wont connect.

 

here is the commands that are being used.

 

dbprofile –dn ignite –sip X.X.X.85 -m 255.255.255.0 -gip X.X.X.1 -cip X.X.X.26 -b "/opt/ignite/boot/nbp.efi"

 

dbprofile -dn ignite

 

lanboot select –dn ignite

 

iT then lists out 16 ports to select from and no matter what i select it wont connect.

 

any help would be appreciated,

thanks

Re: BL890 i4 issues with ignite

What interconnects are in the enclosure? Maybe you need to do some adjustments (create VC profile etc).

 

Any answer from "lanboot select"?

 

Example:

 

PXE-E16: Valid PXE offer not received.


Hope this helps!
