Description Matt Flusche 2016-08-28 21:46:31 UTC

Description of problem:
For OSP-d 9, the overcloud nodes loop with the following error:

unrecognised option "timeout"

Workaround is to remove the "--timeout 60000" from /httpboot/inspector.ipxe on the undercloud node and re-run introspection.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
rhosp-director-images-ipa-9.0-20160818.1.el7ost.noarch
openstack-ironic-inspector-3.2.2-4.el7ost.noarch

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. For OSP-d 9, add ironic nodes
2. Run: openstack baremetal introspection start [NODE UUID]
3. Observe console of overcloud node during introspection

Actual results:
overcloud node loops with usage error for --timeout option

Expected results:
introspection

Hello! You haven't mentioned if it's bare metal or virtual environment. However, the problem is that you have outdated iPXE ROM somewhere. If it's a virtual environment, please make sure to update the ipxe packages on the virtual host (not the undercloud!). If it's bare metal, please check with your vendor for firmware updates.

Comment 3 Matt Flusche 2016-08-29 17:36:25 UTC

Thanks Dimtry!  This is a virtual environment.  Looks like the current version of ipxe ROM from rhel-7-server-rpms repo (ipxe-roms-qemu-20130517-8.gitc4bce43.el7_2.1.noarch) is not compatible.  

I upgrade to the version (ipxe-roms-qemu-20160127-1.git6366fa7a.el7.noarch) available in the OSD-d 9 repo: rhel-7-server-openstack-9-director-rpms and that resolved my issue.

Thanks again for your help.
