Thomas,

Sorry, I do not quite follow your point about "2)", is the observed behavior different from what you expected ?

Well yes : I would expect (expect may not be the correct word - let's say I thought it worked that way) that a node, even once installed (in the stateful case), which reboots on the network would tftp xNBA (which in turn would GET one of the /tftpboot/xcat/xnba/node/<node> or <node>.uefi script).

My understanding is that it works this way for legacy (BIOS) boot.
Otherwise what would be the point to change the iPXE script file to:

#!gpxe
#boot
exit

?

So I was assuming any host PXE-ing would always get xNBA wether it is on initial install or a later reboot (if UEFI network is first in boot order)



As to "duplicate lease" point, is it possible you have an IP associated with a MAC, that is also inside dynamic range ?

I thought about it but I don't thinks it's the case.

Can you show:

lsdef -t network -l


"maestro_net","192.168.144.0","255.255.240.0","eth0","192.168.144.1",,"<xcatmaster>",,,,"192.168.144.2-192.168.147.254",,,,,,"maestro.pasteur.fr","1500",,
"maestro_ipmi","10.7.96.0","255.255.248.0",,"10.7.96.1",,,,,,,,,,,,,"1500",,
"maestro_ipoib","172.16.0.0","255.255.248.0",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,"1500",,

lsdef <node> -i ip,mac

Object name: maestro-satvmtmpl
    ip=192.168.148.204
    mac=00:50:56:b5:ac:de

makedhcp -q node

# makedhcp -q maestro-satvmtmpl
maestro-satvmtmpl: ip-address = 192.168.148.204, hardware-address = 00:50:56:b5:ac:de

Thanks for your help
