I’m trying to add a new Ubuntu release on MAAS (Noble) using the CLI.
I used these commands:
maas admin boot-source-selections create 1 os="ubuntu" release="noble" arches="amd64" labels="*"
maas admin boot-resources import
But it wasn’t successful. Any help?

Please see https://maas.io/docs/how-to-report-and-review-bugs when you open a new thread. Without additional information it’s impossible to triage this
Please do follow R00ta’s advice before proceeding further, as it’s difficult to ascertain what’s wrong
First observations however, I notice you didn’t specify any sub arches in your command? When creating OS images I usually use the form:
`maas $profile boot-source-selections create $id os=$os release=$release arches=$arch1 arches=$arch2 subarches=* labels=*
Sorry for not providing much context again…
I want to try doing the same thing I can do in the frontend using the CLI.
So, I tried to use these commands:
maas admin boot-source-selections create 1 os="ubuntu" release="noble" arches="amd64" labels="*"
maas admin boot-resources import
To get the boot source ID, I used the command:
maas admin boot-sources read
It returns 1.
To fill in all the other fields, I read from boot-sources-selections and copied the same values from “jammy.”
Then I ran the command I mentioned in the first post.
However, while writing this post, I tested the command you suggested (adding subarches=“*”) without success.
Output log:
maas admin boot-source-selections create 1 os="ubuntu" release="noble" arches="amd64" labels="*" subarches="*"
Success.
Machine-readable output follows:
{
"os": "ubuntu",
"release": "noble",
"arches": [
"amd64"
],
"subarches": [
"*"
],
"labels": [
"*"
],
"boot_source_id": 1,
"id": 3,
"resource_uri": "/MAAS/api/2.0/boot-sources/1/selections/3/"
}
root@maas-regiond01:/etc/ansible/facts.d# maas admin boot-resources import
Success.
Machine-readable output follows:
Import of boot resources started
Ohhh, it works! It was just a matter of adding the subarch!
While I was writing the answer, I didn’t get any feedback about the download… but after some time, the release was listed.
Thanks, and sorry again for the lack of context.
