badfish.py doesn't clear job queue

[bengland2]

I can't seem to clear the job queue with either badfish or DRAC GUI, this is preventing me from changing the boot order.

[bengland@bene-laptop badfish]$ ./badfish.py -H mgmt-e23-h23-740xd -u quads -p 494292 -i config/idrac_interfaces.yml --clear-jobs
- INFO     - Systems service: /redfish/v1/Systems/System.Embedded.1.
- INFO     - Managers service: /redfish/v1/Managers/iDRAC.Embedded.1.
- WARNING  - iDRAC version installed does not support DellJobService
- WARNING  - Clearing job queue for job IDs: ['JID_640133055279'].
- ERROR    - Job queue not cleared, current job queue contains jobs: ['JID_640133055279'].

Chris Enright seems to know why this happens, apparently JID_CLEARALL doesn't work on 740xd? @QuantumPosix ?

I am testing this now, it did not earlier while a job was there, and took a "jobqueue delete --all" instead of "jobqueue delete -i JID_CLEARALL". I will be testing further on a node that is not involved in any reservations. ~ Thanks, Chris 978.392.1043

So it looks like a firmware update for iDrac9 will fix the issue as annotated below:

Old iDrac Firmware(3.21.21.21):

./badfish.py -H $host -u root -p "calvin" --clear-jobs
  - INFO     - Systems service: /redfish/v1/Systems/System.Embedded.1.
  - INFO     - Managers service: /redfish/v1/Managers/iDRAC.Embedded.1.
  - WARNING  - iDRAC version installed does not support DellJobService
  - WARNING  - Clearing job queue for job IDs: ['JID_641574909915'].
  - ERROR    - Job queue not cleared, current job queue contains jobs: ['JID_641574909915'].
   

New iDrac Firmware(3.34.34.34):

./badfish.py -H $host -u root -p "calvin" --clear-jobs
 - INFO     - Systems service: /redfish/v1/Systems/System.Embedded.1.
 - INFO     - Managers service: /redfish/v1/Managers/iDRAC.Embedded.1.
 - INFO     - Job queue for iDRAC $host successfully cleared.

Same job in the queue - seems to be a minimum iDrac version required for iDrac9 machines as well. I will start updating the firmware on the hosts.

Closing as per last findings from @QuantumPosix.
