wdqs1020: Hanging during partitioning step of installation, rack E2
Closed, InvalidPublic

Description

Hello DC Ops,

I've tried reimaging wdqs1020 3 times, to no avail. I tried applying the DRAC, BIOS, and NIC firmwares, that didn't seem to work.

I've watched the installation on the console the last two times, and it hangs at the exact same moment:

┌────────────────────────┤ Partitions formatting ├────────────────────────┐

└────────────────────────────────────

Are y'all able to check the hardware for us? Feel free to ping me here or in IRC (inflatador) if you need further info. Thanks!

I left the install going for a few hours, and it eventually completed despite the fact that it seemed to hang (I connected/disconnected from the console multiple times, and I saw the other panes of the installer updating just fine, so it did not occur to me that the installer pane could have frozen). But I'm glad that's all it was! Closing...
