Lifecycle Controller not available after running Ansible idrac_os_deployment #93

Closed davisglenn closed 4 years ago

davisglenn commented 4 years ago

Hi, I am not able to get the Lifecycle Controller to become available after running an idrac_os_deployment task. Poweredge R740 with iDRAC version 3.36.36.36 ansible 2.9.1 / python version = 2.7.5 I am running the latest omsdk (1.2.387-) I built from git repo. I have added expose_duration: 180

It seem like the only way to get the LC to work is to racadm racreset thanks.

@davisglenn; can you share the playbook. We are checking this issue.

davisglenn commented 4 years ago

Sure, here you go...

name: Build Bare Metal Servers hosts: baremetal_provision gather_facts: false connection: local tasks:
- name: Boot to Network ISO idrac_os_deployment: idrac_ip: "{{ idrac }}" idrac_user: "{{ user }}" idrac_password: "{{ password }}" share_name: "{{ share }}" share_user: "{{ user }}" share_password: "{{ password }}" iso_image: "{{ bootable_image }}" expose_duration: 180

@davisglenn, even after 3 hours (180 minutes) LC remains busy and not available for further operations right.

I thought this time was in seconds. I now see after looking at the python code that this time is in minutes. I am closing the ticket because now that I lowered the time to something more reasonable (10 min), it seems to work a lot better. BTW - The time doesn't seem to be an exact match to getting back the LC. For example, I set it for 10 minutes, but I get the LC back in anywhere from 13-15 minutes. Is that expected? Thanks for your help! glenn.
