Boot from make_net_recovery image

[hpuxrox]

How does one boot from the a make_net_recovery image. This is what I have so far,

Main Menu: Enter command or menu > sea lan install

Searching for potential boot device(s) - on Path 0/1/2/0
This may take several minutes.

To discontinue search, press any key (termination may not be immediate).

Choose an operating system to install that your hardware supports :

Problem is that I want to select the ignite backup and not the OS golden image.

Shalom,

My general approach would be.

Bo P4
Y to interact question

boot lan.10.228.59.77 install

Then watch the processes on the Ignite server.

You should see some evidence of the attempt in the Ignite logs and some boot processes attempting to assign an IP address.

We need to find the problem before we can fix it.

Have you all the infrastructure in place on the Ignite server to serve up the images? Is the NFS share point for the images permitting access (showmount -e).

Lots of things to check.

Detective work, thats what it is.

I suspect some setup issues exist on the Ignite server. Logs might help. /var/opt/ignite
