Description Dan Sneddon 2015-04-14 06:18:06 UTC

Description of problem:
When registering or discovering bare metal nodes, Ironic is throwing errors. This began around April 10th-13th.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
openstack-ironic-api.noarch    2015.1-dev546.gf102adf.el7.centos
openstack-ironic-common.noarch 2015.1-dev546.gf102adf.el7.centos
openstack-ironic-conductor.noarch
openstack-ironic-discoverd.noarch
python-ironic-discoverd.noarch 1.1.0-0.99.20150327.1456git.el7.centos
python-ironicclient.noarch     0.4.1.25-g3b171c5.el7.centos
instack.noarch                 0.0.6.4-g57c723a.el7.centos
instack-undercloud.noarch      2.0.0-dev1584.g9dbaa26.el7.centos
[stack@dhcp-75-176 ~]$ 


How reproducible:
100%. I tried this in two separate bare metal environments today, one HP and one Dell. Both were fresh installs, and both experienced the same error.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install instack-undercloud
2. Register nodes
3. Discover nodes

Actual results:
The first time you run "instack-ironic-deployment --nodes-json instackenv.json --register-nodes" it will result in this error:
===============
/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/keystoneclient/shell.py:65: DeprecationWarning: The keystone CLI is deprecated in favor of python-openstackclient. For a Python library, continue using python-keystoneclient.
  'python-keystoneclient.', DeprecationWarning)
Preparing for deployment...
  Registering nodes from instackenv.json
Node db5dc958-10de-4b5c-9621-9e198cc4e1f5 can not be updated while a state transition is in progress. (HTTP 409)
===============

Running the command again appears to succeed, but then there is another state transition error when trying to run discovery, which fails.


Expected results:
Node registration and discovery should work.

Additional info:
This worked last week, it was failing Monday Apr 13th and possibly Friday Apr 10th.

Dan, have you seen it recently? I remember us bumping the retry timeout, so it might be gone.

No, I haven't seen it once in the last 20-30 deployments I have done. This seems to be fixed.
