Connecting IBM BladeCenter H to MAAS?

[Andres Rodriguez]

Hi Jim

Sorry for the delay! It seems I never "send" the email.

So, to answer your questions, the only way we have enabled Blade Center's,
is when MAAS can power manage the machines directly, rather than via the
chassis. In other words, MAAS cannot directly talk to the chassis to manage
machines inside it.

That said, do you have an example of how you would manage these machines
via IPMI talking to the chassis directly rather than the machines?

Thanks!
