| Doc Text | Cause: RHEL 6 only contains GRUB Legacy and Ironic only supports installing GRUB2. Consequence: Deploying a partition image with local boot will fail at the bootloader installation. Workaround (if any): if you're using RHEL 6 for bare metal instances, do not set boot_option to local in the flavor. Or, deploy a RHEL 6 whole disk image which already contains GRUB Legacy installed. Result: | |||

Result: | Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 only contains GRUB Legacy, and OpenStack bare metal provisioning (ironic) only supports the installation of GRUB2. As a result, deploying a partition image with local boot will fail during the bootloader installation. As a workaround, if using RHEL 6 for bare metal instances, do not set boot_option to local in the flavor settings. You can also consider deploying a RHEL 6 whole disk image which already has GRUB Legacy installed. |
