This update only applies to servers that support and are provisioned for Board Management Control (BMC). The BMC of some servers silently reject the 'set next boot device', a command while it is executing BIOS. The current reinstall algorithm when the BMC is provisioned starts by detecting the power state of the target server. If the power is off it will 'first power it on' and then proceed to 'set next boot device' to pxe followed by a reset. For the initial power off state case, the timing of these operations is such that the server is in BIOS when the 'set next boot device' command is issued. This update modifies the host reinstall algorithm to first power-off a server followed by setting the next boot device while the server is confirmed to be powered off, then powered on. This ensures the server gets and handles the set next boot device command operation properly. This update also fixes a race condition between the bmc_handler and power_handler by moving the final power state update in the power handler to the power done phase. Test Plan: Verify all new reinstall failure path handling via fault insertion testing Verify reinstall of powered off host Verify reinstall of powered on host Verify reinstall of Wildcat server with ipmi Verify reinstall of Supermicro server with ipmi and redfish Verify reinstall of Ironpass server with ipmi Verify reinstall of WolfPass server with redfish and ipmi Verify reinstall of Dell server with ipmi Over 30 reinstalls were performed across all server types, with initial power on and off using both ipmi and redfish (where supported).
