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

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.

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.

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...

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.

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.

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.

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.
Hello,
i'm installing successfully on Lenovo Flex System x240 M5 Compute Node
via PXE and boot through legacy mode. I did the required setup on
Foreman by creating new Provisioning Templates (kickstart and PXELinux
configs based on
https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_virtualization/4.1/...
with few changes)
I haven't been able to start the setup when UEFI mode is enabled, but
is a problem connected first to grub2-uefi (discovery works only on
Legacy mode, no deployment requires workaround:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1487107 ) and then maybe
to pxe firmware that loops on downloading the same
/grub/grub.cfg-01-MACADDRESS. But this shouldn't be related to oVirt
images.
Anyway setup done in legacy mode can't be booted via UEFI, because as
far as i can see no /boot/efi partition is created by autopart.
In case of start via cd iso image and using kickstart containing
autopart --type=thinp, will autopart understand that efi partition is
required and then setup everything needed?

Hello Yuval,
sorry for my late response! I installed from a USB stick... I try it now
again on a second machine and the exact message is:
*Failed to open \EFI\centos\grubx64.efi - Not Found**
**Fail to load image \EFI\centos\grubx64.efi - Not Found**
**start... image() returned Not Found*
What Brian Barry recommend didn't work for me to. I booted again from
the stick and choice Troubleshooting, there I can select "1", this
should mount my installation to a folder, but the starting process ended
up in a loop, where error comes up saying something about error on line
9. After a second round I lost my patience and I install again the
normal centos minimal.
Is there any performance benefit with installing from oVirt Node?
Regards
Jonathan

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.

I remember I first tried to use for oVirt a dedicated login on

with just "Remote Server Power/Restart Access" and I could not

work, so I just granted "Supervisor" to the dedicated login.
Other than
that, no problem.

@Eduardo Mayoral, can I ask you that you are able with

to use the power management? As I understand, they support
ipmilan,
but I don't know how...

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?
