Redhat 6.3 can not be booted up after iscsi boot with Intel 10G x520-DA2

Latest response

Hi,

 

We have a IBM xserver 3650 inserted one Intel 10G x520-DA2 card.

 

And plan to iscsi boot from remote iSCSI disk volume.

 

Flash firware and enable iscsi boot:

  4   00151720CB39   Gigabit N/A FLASH Disabled

 

And then set the iscsi boot from card bios:

 

find the remote volume disk could be recognized when installing redhat 6.3, and successfully installed os, but after intallation, it need to reboot os, find it can not be booted up.

 

Does anyone can help with this?.

 

Many thanks.
