Using MAAS to deploy Vmware vms?

Features
#1

First, is this a supported feature of Maas? We are trying to use Maas to do both our physical and virtual deployments. We are on the latest 3.4 beta version.

The VM gets created on the Vmware 7.x end and it powers up, it loads the ephemeral images and then it errors out after a while. This is the error from the Maas UI for the machine. This was reported by other users on this forum in the past and was reported as fix.

“Failed to query node’s BMC - DataObject.init() takes 1 positional argument but 2 were given”

Thanks

It turns out the username/password was incorrect. I thought when I change the username/password I saw an invalid username and password error message. This error message should be more explicit.

Thanks

Hey @johnliaotvc !

Thank you for reporting this! Do you see “Failed to query node’s BMC - DataObject.init() takes 1 positional argument but 2 were given” in the UI or in the regiond logs?

It is in the UI and the maas.log.

Thank you for the reply. We definitely need to beautify that error message!
