Re: Capturing Image from BL680c G5 Server
From your BL680cG5, can you please provide the output of:
1. lspci
2. lshw
3. dmidecode
4. full console output showing all the text leading up to the error.
Is this the only system that you can't capture from?
Thank you.

Re: Capturing Image from BL680c G5 Server
Is your other "similar system" that you cannot capture from either also a BL680c G5 and does it have the same Fibre Channel HBA?
0d:00.0 Fibre Channel: Emulex Corporation Zephyr-X LightPulse Fibre Channel Host Adapter (rev 02)
0d:00.1 Fibre Channel: Emulex Corporation Zephyr-X LightPulse Fibre Channel Host Adapter (rev 02)
We're trying to determine if the presence of the Fibre Channel HBA may be the cause of the kernel panic.
Thank you for your cooperation.

Re: Capturing Image from BL680c G5 Server
Yes the system is similar. with the same hardware. I have a 3rd system which is a DL385 with the same hardware as my HP SIM server and is on the same network. I am not able to capture the Operating system from this third server as well

Re: Capturing Image from BL680c G5 Server
The only difference we can see between your BL680c and ours is the Emulex Fibre Channel card:
0d:00.0 Fibre Channel: Emulex Corporation Zephyr-X LightPulse Fibre Channel Host Adapter (rev 02)
0d:00.1 Fibre Channel: Emulex Corporation Zephyr-X LightPulse Fibre Channel Host Adapter (rev 02)
Would it be possible for you to remove this card and retry capturing the image and letting us know the result?

Re: Capturing Image from BL680c G5 Server
Sorry, I wasn't clear in my last reply.
We do not have a Fibre Channel card in our BL680c.
So, I was wondering if it was possible for you to remove your fibre channel card and try to capture the image with it removed to see if that card is causing the boot issue.

I am trying to do a test with another blade bl460c which has a qlogic fiber card and seeing if the issue arises

Re: Capturing Image from BL680c G5 Server
Does this system not have any local disks?
We just want to see if it is the fiber card that is causing the crash. If the Qlogic card doesn't work either, try removing all fiber cards. Even if the node has no local disks, I think it should still be able to boot the ramdisk and bare-metal discover onto the CMS.
Unfortunately, we don't have a fiber card here in our lab. We'll be ordering one today, but it will take at least a few days to arrive.
Thanks

Re: Capturing Image from BL680c G5 Server
When it says "Please press ENTER to activate this console" that is the completion of the ICE-Linux RAMdisk boot sequence.
I believe you will be able to bare-metal discover, capture, and deploy images now.
It looks like that card is not well liked by the ramdisk. We will have to sole this problem when we have a card in hand, and try to get a fix out.
Can you run with these Qlogic cards?

Re: Capturing Image from BL680c G5 Server
The error you see there is because SIM no longer understands which iLO belogs to the server you are working on. There needs to be a server to iLO "association". There are circumstances that cause this association to go away.
There are troubleshooting steps for repairing server to iLO associations in the troubleshooting sections of the ICE-Linux users' guide AND the release notes.
- For startes, make sure the iLO is discovered
- try selecting both the server and the iLO and do an Options -> identify system
This often can fix the problem.

Re: Capturing Image from BL680c G5 Server
The following line in the log file:
"System does not have the SNMP ProLiant Server (foundation) agents installed."
Indicates that the managed system either does not have the appropriate Proliant Support Pack installed, or the PSP is not properly configured.
You need to be running hpasm and hp-ilo on your system and have them configured using 'configure or repair agents' in SIM.
These steps are WELL documented in the ICE-Linux docs, and it will take me too long to type it in this way :)
Once you get that squared away, you should be fine.

Could not set one time PXE:
Error retrieving BMC for server. Root cause:Could not determine the BMC associated with the server (192.168.28

Any ideas

Re: Capturing Image from BL680c G5 Server
You're getting there, however, the CMS is still not able to associate the iLO with the server. That's what that error means.
This is USUALLY the result of the agents on the managed node either not being installed, not running, or not being properly configured. You need to double check these.
One thing you can try is to manually enter a snmp get command from the CMS to see if the managed node really returns any information.
Try the following command, replacing your information for
snmpwalk -Os -c
Remember, run this command ON the CMS but query the managed node, just like SIM would.
If your agents are properly configured, you should see assorted information about the iLO in that server, including the date and version of the firmware and the iLO system name.
If you don't get that back, then you still need to fix the agents.
Run 'configure or repair agents' from the SIM GUI against that node.

Re: Capturing Image from BL680c G5 Server
You 'configure and repair agents' output looks fine. It failed on the WBEM configuration because your system probably doesn't support WBEM. But everything else worked. We suggest unchecking the WBEM option. The only two things you really need are the SNMP config and the configure SSH access options.
Are you saying that AFTER you ran this tool, the server to iLO association is still not there?
