Public bug reported:
I have an old machine that does not have any form of IPMI or remote
power control. I created a new machine in MAAS with the "Manual" power
type, expecting that I would still be able to use it with MAAS but that
I would need to manually power the machine on and off.
However, while MAAS successfully performs comissioning, all hardware
tests fail due to "BMC never transitioned from unknown to on.". It
appears that when executing tests, MAAS expects to control the machine's
power but can't - and eventually it times out and the test fails.
Consequently, even though I have manually powered on the machine as soon
as it completes a boot from PXE to the login screen, it shuts down again
as there are no tests to run.
