https://jira.suse.com/browse/ENGINFRA-3686 was marked as done but I could not reach the machine over IPMI/HMC(?)

I reopened the ticket and added
https://jira.suse.com/browse/ENGINFRA-3686?focusedId=1329265&page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel#comment-1329265

From qe-jumpy I can not ping whale.qe-ipmi-ur (192.168.153.118) and with no information about PDU connections in https://racktables.nue.suse.com/index.php?object_id=9594&page=object&tab=default I would not know how to check or power cycle the machine. Can you please ensure that we can reach the machine? Otherwise we can't work with it from remote.

So whale-1 booted up fine and has network but a dynamic DHCP lease. Any hint on the credentials for whale-1 to login and find the MAC address and debug further?

I could login as root with default old root pw. The system whale-1 has network

but DNS says it should be 10.145.0.133. wicked ifup all did not change that. Triggering reboot. If that does not help to get the right address will ping IT to ask to check the DHCP logs on fozziebear for 76:58:02:7b:d8:f7

Reboot did not help, same address received.

https://suse.slack.com/archives/C04MDKHQE20/p1709559520923729

As we are still denied access to fozziebear can someone from IT with access to that machine running DHCP for qe.prg2.suse.org please check the dhcpd logs for 76:58:02:7b:d8:f7 so that we can find out why the machine whale-1 gets a dynamic lease when it should get 10.145.0.133

https://gitlab.suse.de/OPS-Service/salt/-/merge_requests/4842 by mcaj was merged and as follow-up https://gitlab.suse.de/OPS-Service/salt/-/merge_requests/4799. Logged in to whale and mkvterm -p whale-1, triggered reboot. Will check if it gets the IP addresses from the static lease after that.

Also after reboot whale-1 got 10.146.5.173/23 so back to https://suse.slack.com/archives/C04MDKHQE20/p1709559520923729 in #dct-migration

Apparently the wrong IP addresses were configured, only valid for PRG2, not PRG2e. mcaj fixed that with https://gitlab.suse.de/OPS-Service/salt/-/merge_requests/4848, testing now.

@Martin Pluskal all VMs on whale should be usable now. See https://suse.slack.com/archives/C04MDKHQE20/p1709653283705009?thread_ts=1709559520.923729&cid=C04MDKHQE20 for context. whale-1.qe.prg2.suse.org is already reachable, others after reboot or when the DHCP leases expire. Please verify that all machines on whale can be used as expected or let me know where I can help otherwise.
