Hi, 
 
I suppose you modify the chain attribute after deploy the object node.
In that case, you shall run 'nodeset <nodename> runcmd=bmcsetup' to do the BMC setting up process.
Pls let me know if there is any more concerns.
 
Thx!

Practical. So the bmcsetup while run into the shell did successfully set
the correct IP address.

My guess is that the bmcsetup command is not run during the provisioning?
How can I check that?

Thanks.
