For our metal, we have our own dhcp/tftp server with pxelinux menu to install different systems over preseed/kickstart/cloud-init.. and a simple webserver checking dhcp logs for new machines to show on a php webpage. Once the machines install they run an inventory script to add into our snipe-it inventory. I guess mass has a fancy gui though..

I run maas for provisioning a home cluster of Dell Optiplex Micros. These machines are quiet and take little power to run, so they are perfect for a homelab. However the power controller on these machines are controlled with Intel vPro or AMT (Active Management Technology). It took me quite a while to get maas to play nice with these machines. DHCP assigns a random IP but the power controllers are static. This is supposed to be handled by assigning a hostname but for some reason maas doesn't recognize it. I solved it with static DHCP entries to assign the same ip to the mac of the machine. Weird. If you run into this problem LMK. Maas is a great system. Tikerbell does not yet support vPro AMT so I can't use it in my lab.

My feeling on this is that it's either 20 years too late, or a solution looking for a problem. The reason why I say this is this would have been awesome 20 years ago, when imaging new machines were super expensive, and virtualization wasn't as heavily used as it is right now. The other reason why I say it's a solution looking for a problem, is that it's super cheap to get images, even custom images, on machines during the actual building of these servers. Hell, I believe Supermicro will work with your engineers and will literally fly out on a big enough order to make sure that all the software is working correctly, BEFORE imaging the machines, and then send them to you. Let's say you just want to use this for regular pcs, instead of servers. Even then, this doesn't do enough to be worth the support. There is no remote managing solution, other than ssh and whatever else you push into your image. My real guess is that some businesses must just have spare machines available for development/deployment, and rather than having to constantly buy or sell machines, they just keep them around, turned off, and ready to turn back on in a relatively quick time. Otherwise, k8s, openshift, and others just make more sense with an ipmi call via vmware esxi or hyperv just makes more sense.

This SSH Key is kicking my butt, I tried putty, SSH on Ubuntu, and Windows CMD/Powershell. I am able to get it working but after a reboot I get Permission denied (publickey). I have been doing this over and over for like 3 weeks using 4 computers and it's killing me! I am trying my best to not say Maas is a Peace of S++t. Please help me get this working and thanks!!!
