However after further investigation. I found that there is gpxe - etherboot install on this server.

My questions is how to recover this server?


Solution 1:

The disk appears to have failed. Because the bios couldn't find a bootable disk, it tried to boot from the network using gpxe, but it didn't find a network boot server.

It may be possible to use forensic recovery methods to recover data from the disk. There are multiple companies that can do this. However, it may be less expensive to recover any needed data from backups.

Solution 2:

  • Get a new server with support (ideally with hardware raid)
  • Install a supported OS
  • If the disk is readable, migrate your applications and data, if not, restore it from your backups
  • Set up monitoring and keep it updated
