Ah sorry, I just figure out you are running HB... I though you were referring to NW DISASTER RECOVERY saveset. I'm not sure if there is a difference when using HB, but I suspect (guess) there isn't. I'm not familiar with H, but I remeber TFTP was one of possible protocols to be used to access PXE boot image from HB server so I assume (guess again) that one would be used in case you would have Linux HB server with PXE image stored (not sure if that works, but I see no reason why it shouldn't). Not sure if anyone else has worked with HB here and if it can give more details and real life experience...

I didn't play (yet) with PXE based DR, but are you sure deplyment server is configure? (see link). By looking at it, it looks as your deplyment server is returning this message. I know Windows team tested it here where I'm now and they were happy with it, but since they did isolate test I was not involved so I do not have all details of configuration they made.
