Install rhevh through pxe adn add "console=ttyS0,115200n8" 2. Run #minicom in other machine which has the serial line connected and check the output. Actual results: 1.

Test version: rhevh-7.0-20141119.0.el7ev.iso ovirt-node-3.1.0-0.27.20141119git24e087e.el7.noarch Test step: 1. Install rhevh-7.0-20141119.0.el7ev.iso through pxe with append the follow parameters. console=ttyS0,115200n8 firstboot 2. Run putty in remote host which linked with ovirt node through serial line Test result: 1. After step2, it skip the installation process and jump to login page. So this bug is not fixed in rhevh-7.0-20141119.0.el7ev.iso. Change the status from ON_QA to Assigned.
This can only be verified with RHEV-H after 1203
We'll verify that today.
(In reply to wanghui from comment #2) > Test version: > rhevh-7.0-20141119.0.el7ev.iso > ovirt-node-3.1.0-0.27.20141119git24e087e.el7.noarch I can reproduce the bug on the build above. But I can not reproduce on rhevh-7.0-20141212.0.el7ev.iso anymore. Let me note that some additional serial related pacthes went into that build.
Test version: rhev-hypervisor7-7.0-20141212.0.iso ovirt-node-3.1.0-0.34.20141210git0c9c493.el7.noarch Test step: 1. Seclect Install rhevh through pxe with append the follow parameters. console=ttyS0,115200n8 firstboot 2. Run minicom in remote host which linked with ovirt node through serial line 3. Install rhevh through console Test result: 1. After step2, it skip the installation process and jump to login page directly. So this bug is not fixed in rhev-hypervisor7-7.0-20141212.0.iso. Change the status from ON_QA to Assigned.
Hui, what host did you use, and are you sure that the console is ttyS0 (and not ttyS1 or something else)?
Hi Fabian, I have tested follow machines. 1. Dell OPTIPLEX 790 -- console install rhev-hypervisor7-7.0-20141212.0.iso or rhev-hypervisor7-7.0-20141218.0.iso through pxe -- FAIL Dell OPTIPLEX 790 -- console install rhev-hypervisor6-6.6-20141212.0.iso or rhev-hypervisor6-6.6-20141218.0.iso through pxe -- PASS with login installation process page 2. Dell OPTIPLEX 9010 -- console install rhev-hypervisor7-7.0-20141212.0.iso or rhev-hypervisor7-7.0-20141218.0.iso through pxe -- PASS 3. Dell OPTIPLEX 990 -- console install rhev-hypervisor7-7.0-20141212.0.iso or rhev-hypervisor7-7.0-20141218.0.iso through pxe -- PASS Thanks! Hui Wang
Hui, according to comment 9 it only affect sone machine. Then please reopen a new bug, specific to that machine, and we can VERIFY this one. It does not seem to be a general code problem, if it works on some machines, it rather looks like a lower level problem with that specific machine.
Hi Fabian, I have tried this issue on another Dell OPTIPLEX 790, it can install rhev-hypervisor7-7.0-20141212.0.iso or rhev-hypervisor7-7.0-20141218.0.iso through pxe succeed. So I think maybe there is something wrong with my hardware. So we considered no need to report a new bug to this machine. According to comment#9, this issue is fixed in rhev-hypervisor7-7.0-20141212.0.iso now. Change the status from ON_QA to Verified.
Yey.
