Hi, I'm seeing the same PXE boot issue with 3.6.4 on Centos 7. Booting from ISO DHCP works fine. With PXE I can see the offer coming back from the DHCP server but the VM just seems to ignore it. I also tried swapping the ROMs as per previous post, but had no effect. Alan

A explanation/work-around for this issue raised back in April. It seems that if, in UCS, you configure a vNIC with a single native VLAN it will still add an 802.1q header with tag 0 - possibly to do with QoS. And this extra header prevents iPXE from parsing the DHCP response. The solution for me

I think you would need an IP address on IF2, otherwise the HE cannot communicate with the host. If you have an entry in /etc/hosts that resolves the FQDN of the host to the IP on IF2 then I think the setup script should create the ovirtmgmt bridge there. On 8 November 2017 at 12:33, Arsène
