to give some background on my environment:
my undercloud is a vm
i have 3 of them.
one that worked up to last sunday was from a snapshot of the repo i took in november 2015.lets call it "Rdo-vm-1"
the other 2 are updated/latest.

i have 4 physical machines.
i am currently trying to do the basic physical server deployment of 1 compute and 1 controller. i was using rdo-vm-1 as my control as i had problems with some physical servers.

now, i have done this so often that i have a scrpt that will tear down my overrcloud and ironic nodes and rebuild it. there are no variables.

to clean up i delete the stack, the nova instances and the ironic nodes. then i do follow the documentation, i do know i am doing it right coz the script would at times deploy the overcloud.

only concerns i have are:
a) i am running the 3VMs at the same time. logic says they shouldnt be any overlap unless i misconfigured something
b) i hit this bug: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1249139 - has this been resolved and packaged? for liberty or mitaka?

Did you try doing an ironic node-delete and recreating the node again?

IB

oh and ironic node-show $id indicates that there are no reservations on these nodes but it still says locked!

so late last night i had this problem and searched google and found myself asking the same question after 4 months.

it appears there is a way (still untested by me but hopefully someone here can verify) to remove the lock
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ironic/+bug/1250348 states to run
   ironic node-update ba28de78-f300-4adb-b3e9-eb2ff137f8d7 replace reservation=fake

i am kind of leery of setting it to fake tho

I did an ironic node delete * and did everything over again. No lock. I did not change my hosts file.
Strange behaviour though

Subject: [Rdo-list] [rdo-manager] node locked by localhost.localdomain

 

hi

i am attempting introspection (for the umpteenth time) and i keep getting the error that says node is locked by localhost.localdomain.

it is extremely puzzling because i have a line in /etc/hosts just for my undercloud.

(hmm.. does my 127.0.0.1 undercloud.hostname need to be on its own line or with the 127.0.0.1 locahost.localdomain line?)

i found an rhosp bug since last year with no activity (1232997)  that  indicate the node may be a duplicate. however i am performing an ironic node-delete uuid before beginning introspection.


anybody got any any ideas?
