Restart the bootpd daemon.
Using the instl_bootd method:
 instl_bootd daemon is used by Ignite-UX to boot PA-RISC clients
 configure instl_bootd using the Options:Server Configuration screen
 configuration file is /etc/opt/ignite/instl_bootptab
 instl_bootd daemon normally runs on ports 1067/1068 (unique) used only for
booting PA-RISC clients
 Ignite 4.2 and later: instl_bootd has been enhanced to respond to Itanium clients on
standard BOOTP network ports 67/68
 in /etc/inetd.conf:
comment out:
boots dgram udp wait root /usr/lbin/bootpd bootpd
add:
boots dgram udp wait root /opt/ignite/lbin/instl_bootd instl_bootd
Restart inetd
The following are some example steps that have been used to allow an Itanium system to boot
from a PA-RISC system.
The following entry was added into in /etc/bootptab:
iatest:\
bf=/opt/ignite/boot/nbp.efi:\
hn:\
vm=rfc1048:\
ht=ether:\
ha=00306e100b32:\
ip=15.1.51.252:\
sm=255.255.248.0
iatest replace this with the hostname of your Itanium system.
ha=00306e100b32 replace this with the MAC address of your Itanium system.
ip=15.1.51.252 replace this with the IP address of your Itanium system.
sm=255.255.248.0 replace this with the subnet mask of your Itanium system.
hn: tells booptd to pass back the hostname to the client, leave as is.
vm=rfc1048 vendor magic cookie, leave as is.
