saltlakeHi,18:22
saltlakeI am working with maas and HO servers for the first time and I was able to see a "node" recognized on the maas server but wanted to know what the "power" settings for the node need to be ? The error I have right now is that "The node does not have apowere type"18:23
roaksoaxsaltlake: do your nodes have an IPMI bmc?18:25
saltlakeroaksoax : Yes18:25
roaksoaxsaltlake: and how was the node recognized by MAAS?18:25
roaksoaxsaltlake: if you commission the node (even if you power it on manually), it should automatically configure the power parameters18:25
saltlakeroaksoax : But I have not setup or done anything with them ..I setup Network boot option for the node and rebooted it. I see the MAC addresses look different than what they were in linux18:25
roaksoaxthat doesn't make any sense18:26
roaksoaxhow would the mac address be different?18:27
roaksoaxsaltlake: so if the node pxe booted from maas and registered itself into MAAS, automatically18:27
saltlakeNot sure maybe I mistaken.. but looks like it ..18:27
roaksoaxMAAS should have configured IPMI and updated the parameters automatically18:27
saltlakeroaksoax : the sttus on the maas page says "commissioning" for the node but there is a red error on top of the page that says "Doens not have a power type etc.. " I could manually reboot the node again to see if it makes a difference18:28
roaksoaxsaltlake: yeah, reboot the node, make sure it PXE boots18:29
roaksoaxsaltlake: and let it do the commissioning18:29
roaksoaxit should fix the power parameters18:29
saltlakeroaksoax : I aborted the commissioning and restarted commission... is there a way to see what is going on on that node ?18:30
roaksoaxsaltlake: you'd have to setup console logging18:30
roaksoaxsaltlake: and look at it directly18:30
saltlakeok.. I have not tried that .. do you know how long it might take for a server to get commissioned ?18:31
roaksoaxsaltlake: depends, no more than 10 mins18:31
roaksoaxi'd think18:31
saltlakeRight now the node log syas this "INFO  1 minute ago    Node changed status — From 'New' to 'Commissioning' "18:31
roaksoaxdepends on how fast is the server, how long it takes to do POST, etc18:31
saltlakeOk.. I'd give it 20 min and then reboot it physically18:32
saltlakeI mean hard reset it18:32
roaksoaxsaltlake: Right. If the Node was in New state, and there were *no* power parameters configured, that means that when maas changed the status to 'Commissioning', it was unable to power on the node18:32
roaksoaxsaltlake: because it cannot control is power18:32
roaksoaxsaltlake: so, you need to force a reboot, physically18:32
saltlakeok..18:32
roaksoaxor via IPMI if you have that18:33
saltlakeok .. do I delete this node from maas before poering it on ?18:33
roaksoaxsaltlake: no18:33
saltlakeok18:33
roaksoaxsaltlake: just reboot it, and make sure it PXE boots from MAAS18:33
roaksoaxsaltlake: that should make it run the commissioning environment18:34
roaksoaxthat *should* allow BMC discovery18:34
saltlakeroaksoax : "INFO        0 minutes ago   PXE Request — commissioning " This is a good sign right ?19:18
roaksoaxsaltlake: yes19:23
=== jfarschman is now known as MilesDenver
saltlakeroaksoax : Unfortunately it failed comissioning thanks to this error on "failed [3/7] (00-maas-03-install-lldpd, 99-maas-01-wait-for-lldpd, 99-maas-02-capture-lldp)" How would I go about this now ?19:26
roaksoaxsaltlake: check the logs and see what failed?19:29
saltlakeroaksoax : Finally the node went from commissioning to Ready.. I think that is a good sign!!20:01
roaksoaxsaltlake: did the power paramters get added automatically?20:02
saltlakeroaksoax : Though the message continues to appear if I ignore the powere parameters.. it eventually commissions!!20:07
saltlakeroaksoax : BY message I mean the intimidating red message complaining about power parameters on the maas page20:07
saltlakeroaksoax : the power type in the node is still "--" though the status is ready.. should I be worried about that ?20:08
saltlakeroaksoax : Ok I have concluded that the power type -- is NOT a good thing since maas cannot control the node.20:22
saltlakeam now researching how to setup ipmi on these dl360 serers20:22
saltlakeok has anyone used a DL360 server and know how to set the power type parametrs for the respective node ?20:36
saltlakeI think givev the boot screen for the node says it supports ILO 2 I think the power parameter should "Moonshot HP ILO chassis manager". Does nayone know how to get this setup ?20:47
