[2.5] Machines are being rebooted after commissioning during enlistment happens.

[Andres Rodriguez]

In the CI I've noticed that machines are being rebooted after enlistment + commissioning happens. I'm not yet quite sure whether this is because power management is powering them on (which doesn't seem to be the case) but rather, this would seem as if the ephemeral environment is telling them to reboot after commissioning during enlistment finishes.

I think this is a problem with the system firmware, not MAAS. The enlistment environment is hard coded to shutdown when done(see src/maasserver/compose_preseed.py:compose_enlistment_preseed). I entered the IPMI console and found that all of the booted machines were stuck in firmware, no OS was loaded. One had the following error message:

Embedded RAID 1 : Smart Array P440ar Controller - (2048 MB, V6.06) - Operation
Failed
 - 1719-Slot 0 Drive Array - A controller failure event occurred prior
   to this power-up. (Previous lock up code = 0x13) Action: Install the
   latest controller firmware. If the problem persists, replace the
   controller.
