PXE-E18 timeout error
Hello,
I'm trying to lanboot 2 RX2660 server over the network to ignite it to HPUX 11iv3.
all 3 servers are on different subnets.
[edited as it's not relevant at all].
- one is working fine when doing:
dbprofile -dn new1 -dhcp -sip IP_OF_THE_IGNITE_SERVER -b "/opt/ignite/boot/nbp.efi"
lanboot -dn new1
= all my bootp/ignite configs seem to be fine
- the other one, I'm having this output:
Shell> lanboot -dn new1
Client MAC Address: xxxxxxxxx
Client IP Address: IP_OF_THE_IGNITE_CLIENT
Subnet Mask: 255.255.252.0
BOOTP Server IP Address: IP_OF_THE_IGNITE_SERVER

Gateway IP Address:IP_OF_THE_IGNITE_GW2
DHCP Server IP Address: IP_OF_THE_IGNITE_SERVER
Boot file name: /opt/ignite/boot/nbp.efi
Retrieving File Size..................-
PXE-E18: Timeout. Server did not respond.
Exit status code: Invalid Parameter
On the server side, I get those logs:

Re: PXE-E18 timeout error
To use ignite across network subnets you have to setup boot helpers on the target subnets. Your ignite admit guide has all the detail. Ignite must be installed on the helper and configured as shown in the guide. Some bootptab entries are required to. If you still have PA-RISC systems that need to be supported, they require a boot helper configuration too.
I've used it. It does work. But it can be interesting to set up. Have fun!

This looks like the system has successfully completed the DHCP/BOOTP negotiation, and is now preparing to download the boot file. It is probably attempting to contact the Ignite server (or the Ignite boot helper, if one is configured) using the TFTP protocol. Apparently it is using a TFTP protocol extension to query the file size first, but the TFTP request seems to fail.
If one rx2660 is booting successfully from the Ignite server, you obviously have the TFTP service running on the Ignite server host. If you see any log entries from the TFTP service on the Ignite server when the successful rx2660 boots, do you see anything similar in the logs when the other rx2660 attempts to boot? If you see TFTP log entries with one rx2660 but not with the other, that would suggest that the TFTP request from the second rx2660 is not reaching its destination at all. If there are firewalls between the network segments, you should verify that they are configured to pass TFTP requests to the Ignite server and responses back to the rx2660. (As TFTP is an UDP-based "connectionless" protocol, it might be necessary to allow both directions separately.)

Re: PXE-E18 timeout error
Thanks all for your answer.
Here are some more things:
Let's call:
- IS: Ignite Server
- CS1: Client Server 1 that I'm trying to boot/ignore, but does not work
- RS1: relay server (boot helper) for the subnet of CS1
- CS2: Client Server 2 that I'm trying to boot/ignite, which is working fine
- RS2: relay server (boot) helper for the subnet of CS2.
- boot helpers: the pair CS2+RS2 is working fine. I configured the pair CS1+RS1 using the same rules (with an obvious change for the subnet).
- CS2+RS2 ignite is working fine: that means that IS is properly configured too (bootp+tftp are running, firewalls disabled...etc)
- I tried using another server for RS1, with the same results.
- I can tftp from RS1 to IS, and retrieve the file:
# tftp IP_OF_IS
tftp> get /opt/ignite/boot/Rel_B.11.31/nbp.efi
Received 31353 bytes in 0.4 seconds
tftp> quit
=> seems like there are no firewalls between the 2 subnets (I checked with the network admins and they confirmed it too)
So, here's the syslog of IS, when CS2 is booting:
Jul 30 09:42:45 nemlonv1 bootpd[11111]: Received DHCPDISCOVER creating DHCPOFFER. Request data: ha = MAC@_OF_CS2, req IP not sent, ciaddr 0.0.0.0, giaddr 170.127.78.153, broadcast reply on, server id not sent.
