A node in CLEAN FAILED must be moved to MANAGEABLE state before it can be told to "provide" (which eventually puts it back in AVAILABLE). Try this: `openstack baremetal node manage UUID`, then run the command with "provide" as you did before. The available states and their transitions are documented here: https://docs.openstack.org/ironic/latest/contributor/states.html I'll note that if cleaning failed, it's possible the node is misconfigured in such a way that will cause all deployments and cleanings to fail (e.g.; if you're using Ironic with Nova, and you attempt to provision a machine and it errors during deploy; Nova will by default attempt to clean that node, which may be why you see it end up in clean failed). So I strongly suggest you look at the last_error field on the node and attempt to determine why the failure happened before retrying. Good luck! -Jay Faulkner On Wed, Mar 24, 2021 at 8:20 AM Igal Katzir <ikatzir@infinidat.com> wrote:
Hello Team,
I had a situation where my *undercloud-node *had a problem with it’s disk and has disconnected from overcloud. I couldn’t restore the undercloud controller and ended up re-installing it (running 'openstack undercloud install’). The installation ended successfully but now I’m in a situation where Cleanup of the overcloud deployed nodes fails:
(undercloud) [stack@interop010 ~]$ openstack baremetal node list
+--------------------------------------+------------+---------------+-------------+--------------------+-------------+ | UUID | Name | Instance UUID | Power State | Provisioning State | Maintenance |
+--------------------------------------+------------+---------------+-------------+--------------------+-------------+ | 97b9a603-f64f-47c1-9fb4-6c68a5b38ff6 | interop025 | None | power on | clean failed | True | | 4b02703a-f765-4ebb-85ed-75e88b4cbea5 | interop026 | None | power on | clean failed | True |
+--------------------------------------+------------+---------------+-------------+--------------------+-------------+
I’ve tried to move node to available state but cannot: (undercloud) [stack@interop010 ~]$ openstack baremetal node provide 97b9a603-f64f-47c1-9fb4-6c68a5b38ff6 The requested action "provide" can not be performed on node "97b9a603-f64f-47c1-9fb4-6c68a5b38ff6" while it is in state "clean failed". (HTTP 400)
My question is: *How do I make the nodes available again?* as the deployment of overcloud fails with: ERROR due to "Message: No valid host was found. , Code: 500”
Thanks, Igal
