Hello @YungChiang 

One thing that usually causes a deployment to fail at step 8 is not having a clean RAID set before starting the deployment. I don't have details of your nodes but if they are Proliants you need to make sure to delete both the front and back RAID sets and only recreate the rear RAID set again before starting the deployment (RAID 1). 

Also, make sure the tiny image .img file is always mounted during the process of deployment (if you are doing it via network attaching the image) or the USB drive always connected to the host.
