MX740c esxi auto deploy in stateless mode, secure boot fails

MR.C2000,

I would start with reviewing this video, and verify you have completed all the steps to enable secure boot for ESXi.

Let me know what you see.

Hello Chris Hawk,

I don't see a AHCI Controller in the UEFi Boot Settings, only a PXE Device 1: NIC in Mezzanine. We haven't got a disk in the servers, we install esxi in the stateless mode using vSphere auto deploy.

regards

Chris

Thank you, sorry for the misunderstanding. Would you confirm the ESXi version, and that you have loaded the cert, as specified here for ESXi?

No worries, the esxi version is a Dell Image: 703-19193900-A02, the bios is the latest from the validated baseline.

I haven't uplaoded the mentioned certificates because I haven't got a local storage to upload this in the submenu for system security / . secure boot custom policy. But in the "authorized signature database" there are two vmware certificates, as default entries.

regards

Chris

MR.C2000,

Thank you. 

Would you confirm what you see for the following;

What do you have the Secure Boot Policy set for, Standard or Custom?

Have you configured the settings for the UEFI PXE, under Network Settings?

Let me know. 

Hello Chris,

I've opened a support request, when my request has been solved,

I'ill write a summary of the solution here.

Chris
