Private bug reported:
Unable to provision Ubuntu 14.04 on Cisco UCS C220 M4 using the MaaS
server.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Connect the node to the MaaS server and enable the network boot.
2. The node boots up while the MaaS provisioning completes and powers off as
expected.
3. Once, we have a look at the node page in MaaS webpage, the power type of the
node remains unselected, thus rendering the node unusable to provision Ubuntu
14.04.
Ubuntu 14.04
MaaS package version used: 1.5.2+bzr2282-0ubuntu0.2
Actual result:
MaaS fails to create the user called "maas" using ipmitool. This would
lead to a situation where the node cannot be controlled by MaaS using
IPMI.
Expected result:
MaaS should be able to create the IPMI user and successfully provision
Ubuntu 14.04 on the node.
Additional Info:
Created a backdoor and logged in to check what was happening and a traceback
was observed while running the maas-ipmi-autodetect script.

Note: MaaS was able to successfully provision a C 220 M3 node without
any issues. The IPMI user called "maas" was created.
