> We should mention to users that Baremetal uses ipmitool to control lifecycle of baremetal host. ipmitool default uses interface 'lan' to issue ipmi commands. Depending on your motherboard, the interface may need to be 'lanplus', in this case, user has to modify script
> /usr/lib64/cloud/agent/scripts/util/ipmi.py
> replace all lines calling ipmi tool for example:
> o = ipmitool("-H", hostname, "-U", usrname, "-P", password, "chassis", "power", "status")
> to
> o = ipmitool("-H", hostname, ,"-I", "lanplus", "-U", usrname, "-P", password, "chassis", "power", "status")
> this issue will be addressed in next release.
