jumpstart server 1

[CAF786]

I am trying to jumpstart a client, when I jumpstart E420 it goes as well but when I jumpstart v440 it takes me to the interactive mode then after I enter machine name, timezone,netmast etc it start jumping the machine . is there any reason why it behave differentlly.

what does your sysidcfg file in your jumpstart directory look like?

Usually it is an error in that file that causes system to boot interactive.


thanks

tboxa3 is E420 (this works fine

[tjumpa1:root]more sysidcfg
name_service=NONE
system_locale=en_US
timezone=US/Central
terminal=vt100
network_interface=hme0 {hostname=tboxa3 ip_address=172.24.4.137 netmask=255.255.0.0 protocol_ipv6=no default_route
=172.24.1.1}
security_policy=NONE
root_password=
timeserver=localhost

putla3 is v440 (this goes to interactive mode
[tjumpa1:root]cd putla3
[tjumpa1:root]more sysidcfg
name_service=NONE
system_locale=en_US
timezone=US/Central
terminal=vt100
network_interface=ce4 {hostname=putla3 ip_address=172.24.4.138 netmask=255.255.0.0 protocol_ipv6=no default_route=172.24.1.1}
security_policy=NONE
root_password=
timeserver=localhost

Try replaceing

network_interface=ce4 {hostname=putla3 ip_address=172.24.4.138 netmask=255.255.0.0 protocol_ipv6=no default_route=172.24.1.1}


with

network_interface=primary {hostname=putla3 ip_address=172.24.4.138 netmask=255.255.0.0 protocol_ipv6=no default_route=172.24.1.1}
