    @george1421 said in FOG cannot load qlogic network driver on PowerEdge R640:

    lspci -nn | grep -i raid

    Hello, @george1421 first of all thank you for the replay, second sorry for the delay with my answer.
    The problem is that i cannot load/run Inventory in order to register the dell in the FOG database as a host.

    I can send you output lspci output from standard centos hope it can help us

    I install centos on dell server and run following command:

    lspci -nn | grep -i net

      @bsedash said in FOG cannot load qlogic network driver on PowerEdge R640:

      1077:8070

      OK this is good info and I did find another thread in the forum about the same network adapter. It appears that fog doesn’t have this nic installed by default. No worries through.
      I do still need you to boot into debug mode. Take the mac address for the nic you will boot from and manually add that system to FOG’s inventory. Then you should be able to get into debug mode as I mentioned before.

      You cleared all of the tests I needed, but now I need you to check one more and it can only be done from the FOS Linux console. I need to check to make sure there isn’t additional firmware needed in the linux kernel. So if you could run the command grep -i -e "firmware" /var/log/syslog see if there is any output that mentioned missing firmware for the nic. If not it will be a quick fix to recompile FOS Linux with the needed network adapter. I just want to avoid compiling it twice once for the nic and once for the firmware.

      Please help us build the FOG community with everyone involved. It's not just about coding - way more we need people to test things, update documentation and most importantly work on uniting the community of people enjoying and working on FOG!

          Hello @george1421
          thank you for the fast response.

          I cannot do ssh since I cannot set IP address in debug mode (i guess luck of drivers).
          I do have screenshot of consol, hope its help:

            @bsedash This is excellent and told me that there is missing firmware too. That saved us a second trip back to rebuild. The firmware name looks a bit fishy but…

            qed/qed_init_values_zipped-8.4.2.1.bin is what it wants. Let me get the development environment resetup with the latest linux kernel and see what we can do.

                @bsedash The kernel is about 1/2 finished compiling. I should have something in about 20 minutes to test. I suspect you are in the EU so you can test it in the AM. I will have instructions for you to download and integrate it into FOG with the next post.

                  @bsedash Ok here we go.

                  Download the following file https://drive.google.com/file/d/1rUmdLu7fJRTbbSMOYgcmEHnll4aNkjbo/view?usp=sharing

                  as bzImage5.15.44qed (watch the case of the name) and place it into the FOG server’s directory of /var/www/html/fog/service/ipxe directory.

                  Now in the host definition for this computer in question, update the kernel field in the host definition to be bzImage5.15.44qed save the host record. If you still have a running debug task for this target computer (should be still) then just pxe boot the target computer back into debug mode.

                  Test to see if you have an IP address with ip a s Hopefully you will see an ip address defined. If not once again lets look at the firmware messages grep -i firmware /var/log/syslog I did not have the exact matching firmware that was listed in the last report, but the next incremented version. I’m hoping it will take that version of the firmware. The firmware I loaded was qed_init_values_zipped-8.4.2.0.bin instead of what it asked for qed_init_values_zipped-8.4.1.0.bin It should work but…

                      @bsedash Hmm same error…

                      Looking at the setup I failed on this one. I included firmware qed_init_values_zipped-8.4.2.0.bin and it clearly asks for qed_init_values_zipped-8.42.2.0.bin. Let me rebuild it and get it posted.

                        @bsedash OK here is the updated kernel named 5.15.44qed-2 Just download it and save it as the previous name (without the -2 in the name)

                        https://drive.google.com/file/d/1p6sJyIv8uDhF4IUAo7uMzoSp9BmkLzQV/view?usp=sharing

                        I’m going to retire the previous file and link since the kernel build was pointless.

                            @bsedash That is good news.

                            So next steps you have 2 options.

                            1. When you image these dell servers, you will need to manually register the server and then add that kernel name into the host record just as you have done with this test server.
                            2. Since this kernel is a standard FOS linux kernel with the added driver you can use this kernel in place of the FOG Project standard kernel. In the FOG Web ui ->FOG Configuration -> FOG Settings. Hit the expand all button. There is a kernel field there. That field is the equivalent to the field in the host definition, but its global. Set that field to bzImage5.15.44qed and all deployments will use that updated FOS Linux kernel.

                            Please help us build the FOG community with everyone involved. It's not just about coding - way more we need people to test things, update documentation and most importantly work on uniting the community of people enjoying and working on FOG!
