## Observation I found ```scooter-1.qe.prg2.suse.org``` and ```bare-metal6.qe.prg2.suse.org``` can not boot from ipxe because ```no media present```. Actually media is present, for example: ``` #!ipxe echo ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ echo ++++++++++++ openQA ipxe boot ++++++++++++ echo + Host: scooter-1.qe.prg2.suse.org echo ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ kernel http://openqa.suse.de/assets/repo/SLE-15-SP7-Online-x86_64-Build77.5-Media1/boot/x86_64/loader/linux install=http://openqa.suse.de/assets/repo/SLE-15-SP7-Online-x86_64-Build77.5-Media1 regurl=http://all-77.5.proxy.scc.suse.de root=/dev/ram0 initrd=initrd textmode=1 autoyast=http://grenache-1.oqa.prg2.suse.org:20173/G4KA4ahXeT8bQPs_/files/scooter-1.qe.prg2.suse.orgvirt_autotest/host_unattended_installation_files/autoyast/dev_host_15.xml sshd=1 sshpassword=xxxxxxxxxx plymouth.enable=0 video=1024x768 vt.color=0x07 console=ttyS1,115200 Y2DEBUG=1 linuxrc.log=/dev/ttyS1 linuxrc.core=/dev/ttyS1 linuxrc.debug=4,trace reboot_timeout=0 initrd http://openqa.suse.de/assets/repo/SLE-15-SP7-Online-x86_64-Build77.5-Media1/boot/x86_64/loader/initrd boot200 OK ``` The boot process reports: ``` >>No Media Present......^[[22;1H^[[0;37;40m^[[22;1H ^[[22;1H^[[22;1HREADY TO BOOT...^[[22;1H^[[22;1H ^[[22;1H^[[22;1HREADY TO BOOT...^[[1;37;40m^[[2J^[[1;1H^[[1;1H^M >>Checking Media Presence......^M >>No Media Present......^[[22;1H^[[0;37;40m^[[22;1H ^[[22;1H^[[22;1HREADY TO BOOT...^[[0;30;40m^[[2J^[[1;1H^[[0;37;40mPlease press 't' to show the boot menu on this console ``` openQA jobs: https://openqa.suse.de/tests/17133130#step/ipxe_install/3 https://openqa.suse.de/tests/17133125#step/ipxe_install/3 https://openqa.suse.de/tests/17133108#step/ipxe_install/3 https://openqa.suse.de/tests/17133109#step/ipxe_install/1 ## Steps to reproduce * set ipxe boot script for scooter-1 and bare-metal6 * boot from ipxe ## Impact ipmi backedn tests can not run with these two machines ## Problem Looks like connection is broken ??? ## Suggestions * Recent network changes * Recent worker changes ## Workaround * Manually check if the system boots if you select a boot device. If you really find that no network connection can be established then please report a ticket to IT as we don't have access to the switch to check if the port is disabled or if the cable connection is faulty or incomplete n/a
