Hi,

I upgraded from 2.7.7 to 2.8.1 yesterday, since which provisioning of
kvm vms using xnba seems to have stopped working. I'm attempting to put
a disk image on them with

nodeset vm10 osimage=rhels6.2-x86_64-install-vm
rpower vm10 on

If I display the console in wcons it gets xcat/xnba.kpxe via tftp then
appears to start it - the last thing I see is

PXE->EB: !PXE at 9BF7:0710, entry point at 9BF7:0397
         UDNI code segment 9FB7:07A6, data segment 9C72:2CD8 (623-37kB)
         UDNI device is PCI 00:03.0 type gPXE
         623kB free base memory after PXE unload

after which nothing happens.

If I change the netboot method to "pxe" if works as expected. I'm
struggling to think what would have changed - the only thing I can think
of is the way the dhcp leases are getting set up. Here's an example if
it's any help:

host vm10 {
  dynamic;
  hardware ethernet 42:61:0a:0e:50:15;
  fixed-address 10.14.80.21;
        supersede server.ddns-hostname = "vm10";
        supersede host-name = "vm10";
        if option user-class-identifier = "xNBA" and option
             client-architecture = 00:00 {
          supersede server.always-broadcast = 01;
          supersede server.filename = 
                  "http://${next-server}/tftpboot/xcat/xnba/nodes/vm10";;
        } elsif option user-class-identifier = "xNBA" and option
                client-architecture = 00:09 {
          supersede server.filename = 

"http://${next-server}/tftpboot/xcat/xnba/nodes/vm10.uefi";;
        } elsif option client-architecture = 00:07 {
          supersede server.filename = "xcat/xnba.efi";
        } elsif option client-architecture = 00:00 {
          supersede server.filename = "xcat/xnba.kpxe";
        } else {
          supersede server.filename = "";
        }
}

Provisioning physical hosts appears to be OK although I've only tried
one.

I'm not sure what else to try - does anyone have any ideas?

Rob
