I tried 1.5+bzr1977+2072+245~ppa0~ubuntu14.04.1 just now today and the results were no different for the M610 or the R805.
For the M610 I had to power the system up manually or change the username and password parameters in the UI to get the system to commission, etc. The logs don't show anything that jumps out on systems that behave this way. MAAS appears to be OK with the settings it passes to the BMC. Today, I found that I can run the ipmipower command manually with the generated maas username and password and that works on the M610: $ sudo ipmipower -h 10.0.0.39 -u maas -p Hg6awJQtZ --stat 10.0.0.39: off $ sudo ipmipower -h 10.0.0.39 -u maas -p Hg6awJQtZ --on 10.0.0.39: ok $ sudo ipmipower -h 10.0.0.39 -u maas -p Hg6awJQtZ --off 10.0.0.39: ok ..the Web UI, for some reason, when clicking 'commission node' or 'start node' won't power up the machine unless I pass the username and password that's already on the BMC (i.e. root/calvin). For the R805, the same traceback occurs at enlistment time (which is no surprise given what Jason had said yesterday). I'll also try the version of maas that's in the main trusty repos that Andres uploaded (1.5+bzr1977-0ubuntu3) to see if things are any different. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to maas in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1287964 Title: MAAS incorrectly detects / sets-up BMC information on Dell PowerEdge servers To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/maas/+bug/1287964/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
