traceroute

Traceroute:
It will show 30 hops route path from source to destination, so we easily identify which device packet is getting lost.

Traceroute command shows the path to your destination. packets send to will pass through the routers and you receive a response obeying the time to live (TTL) value for each packets. the * denotes a timeout as a response from the intermediate routers that says the packet has expired. This could be due to various reasons. Either the TTL value is not enough, or could be that a firewall or router is denying the trace packets.

initramfs" file is deleted or corrupted on your RHEL or CentOS 7

Initrd/Initramfs image provides the capability to load a RAM disk by the boot loader. This RAM disk can then be mounted as the root filesystem and programs can be run from it. Afterwards, a new root file system can be mounted from a different device. The previous root filesystem which was mounted from initrd/initramfs is then moved to a directory and can be subsequently unmounted. Their are chances that either you might have accidentally deleted "initramfs" file from the /boot partition or it is corrupted due to some reason.  Then boot process will get interrupted and you will see below error: error: file '/initramfs-3.10.0-957.el7.x86_64.img' not found. Good news is you can still recover this "initramfs" by following below steps: Step 1 :  Mount RHEL or CentOS 7 ISO image on your physical server and boot from it. In case you are using HPE Prolient server you can mount this ISO image on iLO, if this is virtual environment then mount it accordingly and reboot...
