We have an outstanding problem with 7.4 images on EFI, since platform moved "grub2-efi" to "grub2-efi-x86_64". There's a patch pending here: https://gerrit.ovirt.org/#/c/83008/ Hopefully merged soon. In the meantime, using Anaconda from CentOS 7.3 via kickstart (with the latest Node image) would work, but this isn't very convenient. Otherwise, you can drop to a shell and manually copy /run/sysroot/.../grubx64.efi to /boot/efi, but this isn't very nice. On Tue, Oct 31, 2017 at 4:46 AM, Yuval Turgeman <yuvalt@redhat.com> wrote:
Hi,
We did have some problems in the past with efi, but they should be fixed by now. Did you use the ISO for installation ? What error are you seeing - which file is missing there ?
Thanks, Yuval.

Thank you, good to know that this works! I need to play a bit with it.

Yes, I use power management with ipmilan, no issues.
I do have license on the IMM for remote console, but that is not a requirement, AFAIK.
I remember I first tried to use for oVirt a dedicated login on the IMM with just "Remote Server Power/Restart Access" and I could not get to work, so I just granted "Supervisor" to the dedicated login. Other than that, no problem.

Thank you, for your commands! I have now also install CentOS minimal, this works. I only though that oVirt Node have some optimizations, but maybe not.
@Eduardo Mayoral, can I ask you that you are able with this servers, to use the power management? As I understand, they support ipmilan, but I don't know how...
Regards Jonathan

I have seen this problem before. For some reason, oVirt Node 4.1.x does not always install everything right for efi. In my limited experience, it fails to do it correctly 4 out of 5 times. The mystery to me is why it gets it right sometimes. I solve the problem by manually copying the missing file into my efi boot partition.

3 of my compute nodes are IBM x3650 M3 . I do not use oVirt Node but rather plain CentOS 7 for the compute nodes. I use 4.1.6 too.
I remember I had a bad time trying to disable UEFI on the BIOS of those servers. In my opinion, the firmware in that model ridden with problems. In the end, I installed with UEFI (You will need a /boot/efi partition)
Once installed, I have not had any issues with them.
