Please list the configuration steps I need to take to get an Itanium client 11.23 boot off an Itanium Ignite server (11.31) running latest Ignite.
I need to configure the EFI boot menu on the client and some files on the server.
Solved! Go to Solution.

Re: How to boot off LAN
/etc/ined.conf
---------------
make sure that you have the entries pertaining to tftp,bootps and instl_boots as uncommented.
/etc/services
---------------
make sure the the services and the ports are through (not hashed) and that on the Network also these ports are not blocked by Network Admin
tftp 79/udp
bootpc 68/udp
bootps 67/udp
instl_boots 1067/udp
instl_bootc 1068/udp
edit the /etc/bootptab
to make the entry of the client LAN MAC Addresses and the temporary IP addr to be used at boot
ha ---- MAC Address of the client
ip --- Temp IP addr to be assigned to the client LNA I/f during install
sn --- Submnet mask of the interface
that shall be sufficient
to edit this file u can vi /etc/bootptab and have a look at the entries over there in the sample configuration.
on the EFI of the client you can create the DB profile using the Shell command dbprofile
Shell>dbprofile -dn test -cip
then to boot using that profile
Shell> lanboot select -dn test

Re: How to boot off LAN
with the relevant services running and that you have both the sides Itanium machines i think instead of /etc/opt/ignite/instl_boottab you shalll require that /etc/bootptab.
and once you open /etc/bootptab go the end of the file and using the last few lines make a new paragraph and edit in the values, once looking at the values you shall easliy found that the values are self-explanatory.
also i had while editing the /etc/bootptab hd put the values of "ha" that is (Hardware Adress or MAC Address of the client LAN Card using the alphabets if occuring in smaller case).
