Net Boot with Flash install
I have a blade 6000 chassis with a T6340 blade. The blade took a dump and I am trying to rebuild it with a Flash Archive. I am using net boot from an E2900 and the flash is located on a an array that is attached to my v245 management server. I can net boot and I can select flash install. When I put in the location ip:/path/to/.flar I receive an error stating "could not find archive.". I have NFS setup and running. I ran flar -i and the flar file is sound. I have been able to remote mount the flar in /tmp/root/flardir, and that hasn't worked.
I am so stuck and I have no idea what else to do.

SYNOPSIS

DESCRIPTION
fence_egenera is an I/O Fencing agent which can be used with the Egenera BladeFrame. It logs into a control blade (cserver) via ssh and
operates on a processing blade (pserver) identified by the pserver name and the logical process area network (LPAN) that it is in.
fence_egenera requires that ssh keys have been setup so that the fence_egenera does not require a password to authenticate. Refer to
ssh(8) for more information on setting up ssh keys.
fence_egenera accepts options on the command line as well as from stdin. Fenced sends parameters through stdin when it execs the agent.
fence_egenera can also be run by itself with command line options.
