Release of server to allocated

Hello,

Release of server currently returns the server to Ready state.
There are use cases where we want to re-use same server - for example - to re-install OS.

It would be good to have the following MAAS functionality:

either

  • ability to do “release” action which would result in server remaining “allocated”
    or
  • ability to deploy a server which is in deployed state (op=redeploy)
    or
  • new API call “undeploy” - which wouldt do same as release but to “allocated” not to “ready”

All comments are welcome.

Regards,
Igor
