Node remains in commissioning status
- by Vinitha
I have been trying to set up ubuntu cloud 12.04. I'm kind of new to MAAS and ubuntu.
Here is what I followed.
Have installed MAAS server using the steps provided in
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ServerTeam/MAAS
For the node, I installed the Ubuntu 12.04 Server Image on a USB Stick. Then restarted the node and opted to enlist the node via boot
media, with PXE. once the process was done, the node was powered off
as expected. I manually powered on the node, as my node is not PXE
enabled. Result - No node was visible on MAAS UI
Since step 2 didn't work, I added the node via maas-cli. command. After the execution of this command I got the
node reflected on to my MAAS UI. But the status continues to be in
"Commissioning" for a long time.
Then I executed "maas-cli maas nodes check-commissioning " and i got "Unrecognised signature: POST check_commissioning".
I'm not sure where is the error. Could some one please help me solve this issue. I checked the following log file but found no error related to commissioning (pserv.log / maas.log / celery.log/celery-region.log). I found this entry in my auth.log "Nov 16 18:20:34 ubuntuCloud sshd[4222]: Did not receive identification string from xxx.xx.xx.x" not sure if it indicates anything as the ip that is mentioned is not of the node nor of the MAAS server.
I also verified the time on the server and node using date cmd - (at one instance the times are : Server: Fri Nov 16 18:15:51 IST 2012 and Node Fri Nov 16 18:15:43 IST 2012). Not sure if 'date' the right cmd to set the time.
I have also check maas_local_settings.py for the MAAS url.
I'm not sure what are the logs that need to be verified. Is there any log that can be checked on the Node.
Thanks
