-apama001 and apama002 are two nodes in an HP SL4540 Gen8 chassis.+apama001 and apama002 are two nodes in an HP SL4540 Gen8 chassis.  Both nodes are running Xenial because the systems [[http://​h20564.www2.hp.com/​hpsc/​doc/​public/​display?​docId=mmr_kc-0111501|RSOD]] when running rpm-based distros. ​ It's possible to get past it by messing with grub but not worth it.  See Quirks below for more info.
  
-As of this writing, they need to be reinstalled with (probably*) Fedora ​and added to the [[services:​longrunningcluster]].+apama001 is running RHEL and the plan is to use it as a docker host.  apama002 is an OSD node in the [[services:​longrunningcluster]].
  
 The iLOs are accessible but the java KVM is mostly useless since our lack of Enterprise License causes it to quit after POST. The iLOs are accessible but the java KVM is mostly useless since our lack of Enterprise License causes it to quit after POST.
  
-I'm working on updating ​the firmware ​on them so F23 can actually be installed without the Red Screen of Death. +The systems were updated to latest firmwares (2016.04.0-SPP2016040) ​the week of 1MAY2016 using hpsum on CentOS.

 What fixed it was finding the proper root drive and manually booting to it in a grub rescue prompt. ​ See below. What fixed it was finding the proper root drive and manually booting to it in a grub rescue prompt. ​ See below.

 +There'​s probably a permanent fix that can be applied in grub.cfg but haven'​t looked into it.

 +\\ Turns out this isn't a UUID or disk issue at all.  Changing the boot mode to not use 16-bit fixes it.
