Troubleshooting Network Boot Problems
A-13
For example, Version 2.12 of the Site Manager’s Image Builder tool stores the
Version 8.12 files in the /$HOME/.builder_dir/rel812/an directory.
2. Make sure that the AN/ANH extracts the kernel image and all of the
application and string files from the same software image.
If these files are from different software versions, the AN/ANH may fail to
boot or operate properly.
3. Make sure that the bootptab file is in the /etc directory.
4. Make sure that the bootptab file contains the following entries:
general:\
:hd=/$HOME/.builder_dir/rel812/an:\
:bf=krnl_an.exe:\
:bs=auto:\
:vm=rfc1048:
Note that /$HOME/.builder_dir/rel812/an is the default location of
the kernel and all application and string files.
5. Make sure that the bootptab file contains a definition for the particular
AN/ANH that is failing to Netboot.
6. Make sure that the configuration filename and path are correct in the
bootptab file.
For example, the following bootptab line indicates that the configuration file
named AN_Bost.cfg is in the /rte3/cfg directory path:
T129="/rte3/cfg/AN_Bost.cfg"
7. Read the bootptab file carefully for misspellings or other errors.
Compare it to the sample file shown in Cha
pter 3 (refer to Figure 3-1).
Displaying the BOOTP Server’s IP Routes
Enter the following command at the UNIX command line of the BOOTP server to
display the IP address of the next hop to a netbooting router:
netstat -rn | grep -i -n
<IP_address>
<IP_address>
is the IP address of the netbooting router’s network.
| is the vertical bar key (the UNIX pipe command).
For example, enter
netstat -rn | grep -i -n 192.32.155 to display the IP address
of the next hop to the network address 192.32.155.
