Comment 9 Steve Baker 2024-08-07 00:04:09 UTC

Here are the commands to add the missing grub.cfg to the overcloud-minimal image, assuming the overcloud-minimal files are in the current directory on the undercloud:

cat > grub.cfg << EOF
search --no-floppy --set prefix --file /grub2/grub.cfg
set prefix=(\$prefix)/grub2
configfile \$prefix/grub.cfg
EOF
virt-customize -a ./overcloud-minimal.qcow2 --copy-in ./grub.cfg:/boot/efi/EFI/redhat

Then use the "openstack overcloud image upload" command you use to upload the overcloud-minimal image, adding the "--update-existing" argument.

This general guide to modifying overcloud images may also be useful: https://access.redhat.com/articles/1556833

Can the customer use this to scale up their ceph cloud and report back with the results? If there is a boot failure can they please provide full details.

Attempt with the applied fix you suggested, but we keep having the same errors, I'll attach the log file.

Setting a NEEDINFO for John for awareness in the ceph squad. Actions now include:
- Aiming for automated testing of overcloud-minimal with UEFI boot in time for 17.1.4
- Fixing the docs issue mentioned in comment #23
