Debugging tip I had a deployment failure after which all the overcloud nodes were in status BUILD but I couldn't SSH into the compute node. In order to find out what was wrong I needed to launch the compute node's virtual console in the DELL Remote Access Controller, but I didn't know the root password so I had to re-deploy after setting the root password for the overcloud image. I followed the instructions that appear in: https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_openstack_platform/8/html/partner_integration/overcloud_images#setting_the_root_password I don't know where but it would be useful to mention this in the guide https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_openstack_platform/10/html/network_functions_virtualization_configuration_guide/assembly-config-sriov-dpdk-vxlan-vlan#annotations:71e917e4-e671-453d-9271-92bb44375bdb
Do we have a debug section where this might fit?
It might be worth still putting some content about this in the 16.1+ docs: https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_openstack_platform/16.1/html/director_installation_and_usage/troubleshooting_and_tips
