OK your HP has 4 NICs

DevicePath(0x0,0x0)/MAC(ECB1D775E524,0x0)
DevicePath(0x0,0x1)/MAC(ECB1D775E525,0x0))
DevicePath(0x0,0x2)/MAC(ECB1D775E526,0x0))
DevicePath(0x0,0x3)/MAC(ECB1D775E527,0x0))

Plus the PXEBaseCode handles are different than UDPv4ServiceBinding/TCPv4ServiceBinding handles.
Therefore you should follow this thread to try to make things work and I'd forget about 6.03.
http://www.syslinux.org/archives/2015-July/023875.html
This particular thread ends up with the code that today we believe is able to deal with
the above mentioned problems (multi-NIC, multi-handle).

If you somehow are able to "hardware disable" 3 of the 4 NICs in your server you 
"could probably" boot 6.03 .
