Help me about Ignite Server!

[Wang,MinJie]

Hi all
I've made some threads about this problem so I think you know me
Let me tell my problem again:
I set up an Ignite Server based on HP B2000 workstation which is a PA_Risc system.And I can use it to ignite 11.11 and 11.0 successfully to install other systems!
And now I want it to install 11.23 on a RX2600 system which is an Itanium-based system by the way.
Then on the B2000 I "swcopy -s /cdrom \* @ /11iv2/core" and use "ignite" to make this depot to be available to B2000 ignite server
and the 11.23 DVD disk I used works well because I've used it installing some systems susccessfully.
All the work was done on the server.
Then I boot the rx2600 system and "lanboot" to the
B2000 system and then installed 11.23 online
Then the problem came out.
When rx2600 tried to "download mini system" the following error came out again and again:

And my ignite software revision is C.6.7.79
Can you help me?
Thx in advance

Hi,
The error you get "Tar: error! blocksize changed" is for corrupt tar file. That file is on the Ignite server. Try to make again the depot because during making the last depot with ignite corrupted tar file was made.

hi

Have you checked if all aptch required are present , for execute this go to :

-->maintenance and support for hp product -->
Software update manager and select -->custom patch bundles - run a patch assessment
-->upload new system information
download swainv and upload result of this command
Create a profile and specify ignite and execute it

just an suggestion/verification , have you modified your ignite server for use PA Risc and Itanium , you must specify :

Edit /etc/inetd.conf and add the following line at the end :

bootps dgram udp wait root /opt/ignite/lbin/instl_bootd instl_bootd

execute inetd -c

Hey Perkov
I thought about your question before and I made the depot several times and got the same result.
And do you remember I mentioned that my original disk works well?So I think it's not the problem
