[Kolla][Kolla-Ansible] Ironic Node Cleaning Failed

Hi Team,

In continuation to the email below, I have some updated information:-

Earlier the allocation range mentioned in "*ironic_dnsmasq_dhcp_range*" in
globals.yml had an overlapping range with the cleaning network, due to
which there was some issue in receiving the DHCP request

After creating a cleaning network with a separate allocation range, I am
successfully getting IP allocated to my Baremetal Node

   - openstack subnet create subnet1 --network public1 --subnet-range
   20.20.20.0/24 --allocation-pool start=20.20.20.150,end=20.20.20.200
   --ip-version=4  --gateway=20.20.20.1 --dhcp


[image: image.png]

After getting the IP, there is no further action on the node. From "
*clean_wait*", it goes into "*clean_failed*" state after around half an
hour.

On verifying the logs, I could see the below error messages


   - In */var/log/kolla/ironic/ironic-conductor.log*, we observed the
   following error:

ERROR ironic.conductor.utils [-] Cleaning for node
3a56748e-a8ca-4dec-a332-ace18e6d494e failed. *Timeout reached while
cleaning the node. Please check if the ramdisk responsible for the cleaning
is running on the node. Failed on step {}.*


Note : For Cleaning the node, we have used the below images

https://tarballs.openstack.org/ironic-python-agent/dib/files/ipa-centos8-master.initramfs


   - In /var/log/kolla/nova/nova-compute-ironic.log, we observed the error

ERROR nova.compute.manager [req-810ffedf-3343-471c-94db-85411984e6cc - - -
- -] No compute node record for host controller-ironic:
nova.exception_Remote.ComputeHostNotFound_Remote: Compute host
controller-ironic could not be found.


Can someone please help in this regard?

Regards
Anirudh Gupta
