Typical failure deployment status values

Status

Comment

Resolution

Waiting for

DHCP

Cause: The DHCP server might not be properly

configured to support auto-deployment (BOOTP

settings).
This status does not result in a failed deployment, but

the deployment process enters a "polling" state

waiting for DHCP to provide the appropriate TFTP

settings to VC. If the deployment is in this state, the
process can be stopped with the stop

auto-deployment command if it cannot proceed.

The DHCP configuration should be

reviewed, especially the Option 66 and

67 settings, to make sure they are correct
for the VC domains expected to be

deployed.

Waiting for
TFTP

Possible Causes:

Cannot communicate with TFTP server specified

in TFTP settings from DHCP

VC configuration file cannot be found on the

TFTP server

The permissions on the file or TFTP directory

might not be correct for remote access

This status does not result in a failed deployment, but

the deployment process enters a "polling" state
waiting for DHCP to provide the appropriate TFTP

settings to VC. If the deployment is in this state, the
process can be stopped with the stop

auto-deployment command if it cannot proceed.

The TFTP file settings should be reviewed

in the DHCP configuration to ensure they
are correct. Additionally, the

configuration file should be checked to

make sure it exists and is in the proper
location. The access privileges should be

verified to allow remote access.

Failed to Create

Domain

Snapshot

At the time an enclosure is imported, the domain

configuration is saved for redeployment scenarios. If

a deployment configuration snapshot cannot be

created, then it results in this status value and
redeployment operations are not be allowed. This

status is caused by an internal failure and typically

does not occur.

If this error occurs, it is typically an

internal error that needs to be reported

back to HP Support along with a support

dump for diagnosing the
cause. Typically, this error should not

occur.

Aborted by
User

The deployment operation was attempted but was
aborted by the user before it could complete. This

status occurs if the user stops the deployment process
by using the stop auto-deployment command,

or by using the VC GUI.

Correct the condition that caused the
user to abort the deployment operation,

and start the deployment operation
again using start

auto-deployment.

Failed to

Validate
Configuration

File

This status is caused by a failure that occurred during

the validation of the configuration file.

Make sure the configuration file is valid

on the TFTP server and start the

deployment operation again using
start auto-deployment.

No
Configuration

Needed

If redeployment is initiated, the configuration file on
the TFTP server has not changed from the previous

deployment that occurred, and the current running

configuration for the domain matches the
configuration file, then a new deployment is not

performed.

No action needed. If you want to
change the deployed configuration, the

configuration file must be modified,

uploaded to the TFTP server, and the
deployment can be initiated using the
start auto-deployment command.

Failed to Power

Server Off

One or more servers could not be properly powered

off as a part of the deployment process.

Diagnose the reason why the server is

having power management issues,

correct the condition, and restart the
deployment process.
