I can no longer see the IP address a node gets on the PXE interface on commissioning

[Andres Rodriguez]

I commissioned a node and I wanted to SSH into the node. I went to check the Interface list to see what IP address it got, unfortunately, MAAS did not show what IP address it got.

In 1.8, MAAS would show the IP address the machine gets as: 192.168.10.20 (dynamic).

This information it is very useful for users who dont want to use the DNS name to ssh into the machine.

VM node was commissioned and left on with SSH enabled. It got IP address 10.0.0.11, which is in the dynamic range of the DHCP configuration. Database shows one IP address, with DHCP alloc_type:

maasdb=# select id, ip, alloc_type from maasserver_staticipaddress;
 id | ip | alloc_type
----+----+------------
 11 | | 5
(1 row)

IP addess is not shown.

Subnets page also does not show the allocated IP address

[Ricardo Bánffy (rbanffy)]

Forcing the IP address into the table triggers the appropriate message through the web socket and updates the interface, showing the IP address (even though the interface is displayed as unconfigured)

maasdb=# update maasserver_staticipaddress set ip='10.0.0.11' where id = 11;UPDATE 1
maasdb=# select id, ip, alloc_type from maasserver_staticipaddress;
 id | ip | alloc_type
----+-----------+------------
 11 | 10.0.0.11 | 5
(1 row)

The issue seems to be related to a runtime failure to find the correct subnet for this IP:

Ricardo,

That is a different bug, a critical one! Please file seperately! This one is targeting about the UI issue specifically. The branch I have review is UI/API only. It would not fox the issue you are seeing.

[Ricardo Bánffy (rbanffy)]

Opened lp:1511894 to deal with the DHCP parsing issue.
