 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. 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.
