CLOUDSTACK-9299: Out-of-band Management for CloudStack
Support access to a hostâs out-of-band management interface (e.g. IPMI,
iLO,
DRAC, etc.) to manage host power operations (on/off etc.) and querying
current
power state in CloudStack.
Given the wide range of out-of-band management interfaces such as iLO and
iDRA,
the service implementation allows for development of separate drivers as
plugins.
This feature comes with a ipmitool based driver that uses the
ipmitool (http://linux.die.net/man/1/ipmitool) to communicate with any
out-of-band management interface that support IPMI 2.0.
This feature allows following common use-cases:
- Restarting stalled/failed hosts
- Powering off under-utilised hosts
- Powering on hosts for provisioning or to increase capacity
- Allowing system administrators to see the current power state of the host
For testing this feature, please install `ipmitool` (using yum/apt/brew)
and `ipmisim`:
https://pypi.python.org/pypi/ipmisim
The default ipmitool location is assumed in /usr/bin, if this is different
in your env please fix the global setting, see FS for details on various global
settings.

travis: Use patched version of ipmitool for tests
- For out-of-band management feature (CLOUDSTACK-9299) use patched version
of
ipmitool that would work on trusty travis machines
- The ipmitool used is from xenial/16.04 release with patch from RedHat
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1286035
- Installs ipmitool from xenial repositories to get all the dependencies
and then install patched deb version
- Skip test if the known failure occurs
