terraform-provider-ibm: RHCOS via ibm_pi_instance timeout waiting for network

Hi team,

I am trying to ignite an RHCOS instance using the Power Systems resources. When creating the resource it timeout waiting for network connection.

Console:

I am trying to configure a DHCP server to provide address to the machine. But that to work I need the network information of the instance such as ip and macaddress. Terraform won’t allow me to fetch these details because the instance resource is not completed. The status of the instance is in ‘Warning’ state and never turn ‘Active’.

Terraform Version

Terraform v0.12.20

Affected Resource(s)

Please list the resources as a list, for example:

• ibm_pi_instance

Terraform Configuration Files

Debug Output

RHCOS node times out waiting for network.

Error: Failed to provision the instance

  on modules/4_nodes/nodes.tf line 104, in resource "ibm_pi_instance" "master":
 104: resource "ibm_pi_instance" "master" {

Panic Output

Expected Behavior

Need to complete the resource so that the network information can be read and fed to a internal DHCP server.

Actual Behavior

Error: timeout while waiting for state to become 'OK, ACTIVE, OK' (last state: 'BUILD', timeout: 1h0m0s)
