INFO: progress: Checking boot partition
ERROR: failed to find LUKS BIO for uuid: [[Replace with any UUID or PARTUUID]]
INFO: No LUKS BIO found
ERROR: GetBootDevice() failed
ERROR: failed to open the boot parition

1. Start vm with rhel7.5 OS and install lsvmtools package, when running lsvmprep, get error:

    # ./lsvmprep
    ./lsvmprep: shim not found

    Reason:
    the shim get value "/boot/efi/EFI/redhat/shim.efi
    /boot/efi/EFI/redhat/shimx64.efi"

    Resolve:
    Update lsvmprep line 159:
    shim=`ls /boot/efi/EFI/${vendor}/shim*.efi | grep -E "shim(x64)?.efi"`
    to
    shim=`ls /boot/efi/EFI/${vendor}/shim*.efi | grep -E "shim(x64)?.efi" | tail -1`


2. Check file scripts/encryptboot format /boot with ext3 not as comment says ext2. Should /boot filesystem be ext2 or ext3?

    251 ### Create EXT2 file system:
    252 mke2fs -j /dev/mapper/boot

    Reason:
    'man mke2fs' check that with -j option means: Create the filesystem with an ext3 journal.
    Command does not match the comment

    Resolve:
    Update scripts/encryptboot line 252 to "mke2fs -t ext2 /dev/mapper/boot"

3. After running ./lsvmprep successfully, before reboot check that can not find the key file /etc/lsvmload/rootkey and /etc/lsvmload/bootkey. Are the 2 key files needed and should be created by script?

    # cat /etc/crypttab
    luks-283e9244-1072-471d-938e-0f01b85ab88d UUID=283e9244-1072-471d-938e-0f01b85ab88d /etc/lsvmload/rootkey
    boot UUID=c47388aa-2328-4035-88de-135002aa2feb /etc/lsvmload/bootkey luks,discard

    # ls -al /etc/lsvmload/rootkey
    ls: cannot access /etc/lsvmload/rootkey: No such file or directory
    # ls -al /etc/lsvmload/bootkey
    ls: cannot access /etc/lsvmload/bootkey: No such file or directory


4. When running ./lsvmprep successfully, start the vm, after the grub menu get error logs, check the default loaded grub.cfg is /boot/efi/EFI/redhat/grub.cfg, should the default loaded grub.cfg file content as /boot/grub2/grub.cfg?

    error: failure reading sector 0x0 from `hd1`.
    error: failure reading sector 0x0 from `hd1`.   
    error: no such device: a4xxxxx.
    error: unknown filesystem.
    error: you need to load the kernel first.

Press any key to continue...

    Reason:
    Check the content is /boot/efi/EFI/redhat/grub.cfg, not expected /boot/grub2/grub.cfg

    2 ways to resolve:
        1) Update lsvmprep to create the new grub.cfg path to "/boot/efi/EFI/redhat/grub.cfg", and rerun ./lsvmprep

        620 ln -s /boot/grub2/grub.cfg /etc/grub2-efi.cfg
        624 local grubcfg=/boot/grub2/grub.cfg

        to
        620 ln -s /boot/efi/EFI/redhat/grub.cfg /etc/grub2-efi.cfg
        624 local grubcfg=/boot/efi/EFI/redhat/grub.cfg


        2) Or after running ./lsvmprep, before reboot, copy /boot/grub2/grub.cfg to /boot/efi/EFI/redhat/, then load the new config file

        # cp /boot/grub2/grub.cfg /boot/efi/EFI/redhat/grub.cfg.new
        # reboot

        Reboot, on the grub cmd line:
        > configfile (hd0,gpt1)/efi/redhat/grub.cfg.new


5. Start a new vm and run the updated scripts, then reboot, get error logs. Should these modules be included by grubx64.efi or other file?

    error: file 'EFI/redhat/x86_64-efi/cryptodisk.mod' not found
    error: file 'EFI/redhat/x86_64-efi/luks.mod' not found
    error: file 'EFI/redhat/x86_64-efi/gcry_rijndael.mod' not found
    error: file 'EFI/redhat/x86_64-efi/gcry_rijndael.mod' not found
    error: file 'EFI/redhat/x86_64-efi/gcry_sha256.mod' not found


    Resolve:
    before reboot, copy the required modules to /boot/efi/EFI/redhat/, then insmod them on the grub cmd line
    # yum install -y grub2-efi-x64-modules
    # cp /usr/lib/grub/x86_64-efi/{cryptodisk.mod,luks.mod,gcry_rijndael.mod,gcry_sha256.mod,procfs.mod} /boot/efi/EFI/redhat/
    # reboot
    > insmod xx.mod


6. Insmod the required modules on grub cmd line, and remove the search line, still get error logs on console:

    error: failure reading sector 0x0 from `hd1`.
    error: failure reading sector 0x0 from `hd1`.
    error: no such device: d0xx.
    error: no server is specified.
    error: you need to load the kernel first.
