Description David Vallee Delisle 2020-04-08 20:06:52 UTC
Description of problem:
Because of these issues bz1822254 bz1776929 - there's a need to use ipxe-snponly image instead of the standard ipxe.efi.

It looks like the ipxe.efi file is hardcoded in the dnsmasq.conf.

I tried to change "ironic::drivers::pxe::uefi_pxe_bootfile_name" but it only updating the ironic.conf.

Comment 3 Steve Baker 2020-04-21 21:24:14 UTC
I've proposed this upstream[1] just to get some feedback on the configuration interface to have control over which file gets copied to /tftproot/ipxe.efi. This change can be backported to Queens then into OSP13.

Comment 4 Steve Baker 2020-04-22 20:40:19 UTC
stable/queens fix has been proposed upstream. To use this, set the following in your undercloud hieradata overrides file and (re)run "openstack undercloud install"

  ironic::pxe::ipxe_name_base: 'ipxe-snponly'

Comment 5 Bob Fournier 2020-04-24 00:15:00 UTC
Moving this to ON_DEV until patch merges to Queen, also changing flags to 13.  Will create a clone for 16.1.

Comment 13 Bob Fournier 2020-06-04 19:12:07 UTC
Confirmed fix is in puddle 2020-05-28.2.
