Switching to iPXE
-----------------

The ``pxe`` boot_interface is currently broken. When provisioning, you will see an error similar to:

.. code-block:: shell

Failed to prepare to deploy: Could not link image http://192.168.1.1:8080/ipa.vmlinuz from /httpboot/master_images/99d5b4b4-0420-578a-a327-acd88c1f1ff6.converted to /tftpboot/d6673eaa-17a4-4cd4-a4e7-8e8cbd4fca31/deploy_kernel, error: [Errno 18] Invalid cross-device link: '/httpboot/master_images/99d5b4b4-0420-578a-a327-acd88c1f1ff6.converted' -> '/tftpboot/d6673eaa-17a4-4cd4-a4e7-8e8cbd4fca31/deploy_kernel'

After deprovisioning a node, switch the boot interface to iPXE:

.. code-block:: shell

openstack baremetal node set <node> --boot-interface ipxe
