Ironic is not recreating the PXE configuration file when you update the port address of an active instance (see https://bugs.launchpad.net/ironic/+bug/1611744) resulting in a boot error if the instance is rebooted.
This problem does not affect nodes configured to boot from the local disk.

Ironic is not recreating the PXE configuration file when you update the port address of an active instance (see https://bugs.launchpad.net/ironic/+bug/1611744) resulting in a boot error if the instance is rebooted.
This problem does not affect nodes configured to boot from the local disk.
Workaround:
Rename the PXE configuration to match the new mac address
