Since I haven't been able to find a listserv specifically for MAAS and this listserv is close to the subject and seems to provide good answers...
I have a MAAS server that was last installed December 18, 2014 to test building an OpenStack cloud. When I first built it, it would discover, commission, and deploy physical machines just fine. Over time it starts loosing the ability to deploy machines. It will reboot them and pxe boot them with the installer, but something fails in the installer process and they end up in one of 2 states. 1. claim to be deployed, but the machine ends up powered down. The last node event is something like: Failed to query node's BMC — Node could not be queried node-27aac898-bec8-11e4-bb0d-180373b04ac9 (esxi06.maas) connection timeout or 2. fails the deploy, but finishes the install, but never configures the network interfaces and will not talk to the world (thus the failed deploy). The last node event for this one also looks like: Failed to query node's BMC — Node could not be queried node-4881df02-bec8-11e4-bcd7-180373b04ac9 (esxi05.maas) connection timeout I have restarted bind9 (fixed an earlier dns forwarder problem that caused juju to fail in deployments) and maas-dhcp. The machines seem to be getting a correct IP address when booting up, they just don't keep it to the end of their configuration process. I suspect that both problems are related but am not sure where to look to find the debug information on it. Any ideas or suggestions for a better place to ask? I have been having problem with MAAS and juju not being very reliable or stable in repeating operations. Any help is greatly appreciated. -- Daniel Bidwell <drbidw...@gmail.com> -- Juju mailing list Juju@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/juju
