Hi gurus,
just after summarizing my request from yesterday I immediately hit onto
a new problem with the ris server. While yesterday I was able to start
the installation procedure and hit problems only when I started
the packet selection (and with the ris home directory),
today I get the following error message from my client when
following installation instaructions for pws433:
(of course I did not change anything on the boothost except
allowing rsh and rexec access)
>>> boot -fi "" ewa0
Trying BOOTP boot
Broadcasting BOOTP request...
..file open failure for bootp/ewa0.0.0.3.0
bootstrap failure
Retrying, type ^C to abort...
(boot ewa0.0.0.3.0 -flags a)
...
and so on...
The joind on the ris server boothost logs the following:
============================================================
616 941814350.420271 Packet arrived on Friday November 05 16:05:50
617
618 received on address iii.jjj.xxx.255
619 xid=0xcbde1f96 secs=0 flags=000000 chaddr=00:00:f8:79:5a:3b
620 unpacked payload:
621 ht=1:ha=00.00.f8.79.5a.3b:ci=0.0.0.0:gi=0.0.0.0:sa=0.0.0.0:yi=0.0.0.0:
622
623 client 00:00:f8:79:5a:3b is on net iii.jjj.xxx.0 inconsistent with static
623 BOOTP IP address iii.jjj.xxx.abc
and repeats it for every request from the client.
my bootptab entry looks reasonable (as created by ris "add client"):
.ris.dec:hn:vm=rfc1048
.ris0.alpha:tc=.ris.dec:bf=/ris/r0k1:rp="boothost:/ris/r0p1":
client.aip.de:tc=.ris0.alpha:ht=ethernet:ha=0000f8795a3b:ip=iii.jjj.xxx.abc:
/var/adm/ris/clients/risdb contains:
client.aip.de:00-00-f8-79-5a-3b:ris0.alpha,product_1,product_2,product_3,product_5,product_6,product_7,product_8:client:/ris/r0k1
and of course a /var/adm/ris/clients/sets/client directory exists
with dummy (executable) preinstall and postload routines and some
files I need to install by the postload.
But as I see it the boot process does not even get this far.
Any ideas are welcome.
Tschüß,
Dieter
