[doc] MAAS needs Moonshot Documentation

[Hamed Hemmati]

When I power up the nodes they boot with pxe and get enlisted. Their power type is set to iLo4 with the IP and user/password of the iLo management module and the power hardware address. However the node won't start when I try to commission it. If I manually start the node then it commissions.

I am not too familiar with moonshot since I just received this unit so I am not sure if there is something I am missing or this happens to be a bug.

After discussing this with HP engineers. They are telling me that maas is supposed to enlist the nodes with IPMI2.0 not the iLo4.

HP was able to figure out the issue. IPMItool is required to be installed on the cluster controller in order for the moonshot nodes to be powered on. Please add that to the documentation thanks.

IPMITOOL is required to be installed in MAAS server since MAAS uses IPMITOOL to interact with the HP Moonshot Server.

Thanks,
Pradeep.

We need to do some documentation updates to ensure that this information is made available for people who uses Moonshot.
