Bug Description

use case is I needed to use maas in an offline setup. I installed maas per the instructions on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ServerTeam/MAAS/. I mirrored the repos so that I would have everything I needed for offline use.

after all was setup online I changed networks to an offline setup and ran 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure maas' typed in the new ip address.
This failed when a node was trying to commission. the reconfigure did not change the ISCSI or the log_host for the cobbler profiles. I fixed this after many hours of searching by using the command 'cobbler profile edit' to change the log_host and ISCSITarget parameters for the commissioning images. For a newb as I was this would be very challenging to find.

I would have expected for the dpkg-reconfigure command to take care of that.

Thanks for taking the time to report this bug in Ubuntu & MAAS.

Cobbler is currently being removed from MaaS for 12.10 (with a possible backport for 12.04).

As a result I'm going to make this as a 'Won't Fix' - as this will be resolved when cobbler is removed from MaaS; this should leave the bug around so if other people hit this issue in the meantime they can get some general guidance on how to resolve.

Thanks
