A few different observations: 1) It appears you're using a partition image. We recommend whole disk images 2) The Image you're deploying doesn't support grub-install being used in UEFI enabled state. Whole disk images should contain contents supporting UEFI boot in the form of /boot/EFI/ contents. 3) Newer/more recent Ironic can navigate turning the UEFI boot loader pointer into a UEFI NVRAM entry. I recommend Wallaby or newer. This specifically will need to be the deployment ramdisk. -Julia On Tue, May 9, 2023 at 9:05 AM Swogat Pradhan <swogatpradhan22@gmail.com> wrote:

I have already provisioned 2 other nodes using the same hardware, but the node provisioning is failing in this particular node.
