Recovering from Ignite

[Buds]

Hi,

With the Ignite server lying in 10.1.5.XX and Ignite clients lying in 10.1.3.XX and 10.1.8.XX i.e. different subnets, we need a boot helper. Hope I am correct.

Hi Buds..

Whats model of the server and the OS version??

Directed boot can also be used.
Directed Boot:
A boot request that is directed to a particular boot server or boot helper system. Client and server networking configuration information is stored on the client system and DHCP is not used. A directed boot also allows boot and installation from a server on a different subnet without requiring a boot helper.

Ignite server:

ia64 hp superdome server SD32B
B.11.23 U ia64


Ignite client 1:

ia64 hp server rx2660
B.11.23 U ia64 3262487661

and

Ingite client 2:
ia64 hp superdome server SD32B
ia64 hp superdome server SD32B

These are different subnets?

You should use the "dbprofile" option to boot the Integrity clients from ignite, this works even without a boot helper.
