Explain whether you’re using the UI, CLI, or API
I’m both using UI and CLI
Explain what happens
Pxebooting fails on the physical machines that is on the same subnet as my MAAS installation.
My setup is region+rack combo with a external DHCP, I have ensure that client machine is able to reach the MAAS tftp using wireshark.
Looking at the logs I’m seeing 404 related to the pxelinux.0 which is also shown in the wireshark “file not found”.
Did I miss something after bootstrapping my MAAS installation?, causing this issue
Additional information: I’m running Maas inside a privileged docker container with network host(for testing), but I don’t think it has something to do with my issue.
Explain how to reproduce your issue
- Followed snap installation procedure in https://maas.io/docs/tutorial-bootstrapping-maas.
- Excuted init (region+rack), createadmin, login ui
- Wait for default image(22.04 LTS) to finish syncing.
- Attempt pxeboot in client machine.
