[rdo-list] [tripleo] [oooq] Deployment to baremetal fails; "No valid host was found"

[Gerard Braad]

Hi,


Had several successful and unsuccessful (due to unreachable
undercloud) deployments. From both I learned a lot, especially related
to the Ironic association and provisioning states.

It seems. There is however a consistent issue remaining. I need to do a

   systemctl restart openstack-ironic-conductor

after each reboot of the undercloud. The service refuses to start correctly:


[stack at undercloud ~]$ openstack baremetal introspection bulk start
No valid host was found. Reason: No conductor service registered which
supports driver pxe_ipmitool. (HTTP 400)
[stack at undercloud ~]$ sudo systemctl restart openstack-ironic-conductor
[stack at undercloud ~]$ openstack baremetal introspection bulk start

I have seen this behaviour with liberty and mitaka, and more
consistent during deployment. When I did virtual deployments it wasn't
as obvious, but now during the physical deployments it starts biting.

Any suggestions what I should look at?
