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.

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.

Hello everybody,
I would like to install oVirt Node on a IBM Machine, but after the
installation it can not boot. I get the message:

"/boot/efi/..." file not found

I try many different things like turn of uefi options in bios etc.
but with no effect.

Now I figure out that when I install full CentOS 7.3 from live DVD
it just boot normal.

Is there any workaround to get this to work?

Regards

Jonathan
