grub command line interface showed during BMR restore

Hi Experts,

NBU master: 7.6.1.2  RHEL65

NBU client: 7.6.1.2    RHEL66

SRT iso  RHEL66

I am restoring my RHEL server using media boot.

The server is in grub command line mode now. The possible commands are listed after I entered 'tab'.

Does anyone know what should I do? Thanks!

  • I have just posted an extremely detailed entry in the forum "some files not restored after BMR restore".

    The root cause in this is identical to the other failure.  You post and asked to look at the restore debug log file. I must ask, did you even give the log file a view yourself?  Even a cursory look of the log file by a neophyte user would show the raft of errors in the file.  The most obvious entry is this:

    Bare Metal Restore has failed.
    Now, you will be dropped to a shell prompt.
    You may reboot the system when you have completed diagnosis.

    '

     

    The GRUB error condition you are obviously encountering when trying to reboot this incompletely recovered server is due to this:

    + cp /tmp/mnt/boot/grub/grub.conf /tmp/mnt/boot/grub/grub.conf.temp
    /tmp/87FC8A96.restore: line 2139: /bin/cp: No such file or directory
    + cp /tmp/mnt/boot/grub/grub.conf /tmp/mnt/boot/grub/grub.conf.beforeBMR
    /tmp/87FC8A96.restore: line 2140: /bin/cp: No such file or directory
    + [[ 127 -eq 0 ]]
    + Bail 'ERROR: Copy of boot config file.'
    + test -n ''
    + EchoToConsole 'ERROR: Copy of boot config file.'

    As noted by Marianne and sdo, I have more than once pointed you to the documentation that specifically states that all of this is not supported. Why do you continue to perform this anyway?
