Problem With make_net_recovery

[Soo Yi]

Hi,
I was trying to perform backup operation for several of my workstation using make_net_recovery.

However, regardless whether I activate the Ignite GUI or command line entry, I always get similar respond (see attach) and the backup will fail.

Both pinging and nslookup the ignite svr via the client was successful.

Any advise or suggestion appreciated. Thanx in advance.

The most likely reason for the error is the tftp service.
Ignite is trying to check the Net Recovery Tools version using tftp and it will
stop if it can't get the version details.

RESOLUTION

Ensure that the tftp service is enabled in /etc/services and inted.conf.
