Additional info:

This is a Bug created to improve the documentation about the below mentioned steps:  

            Issue: 

• When a BareMetalHost reboots either manually via the GUI or via MCP update, OpenShift logs into the iDrac and issues a delete of the Job Queue.

Resolution:

• Detach the node from provisioning prior to commencing downtime/reboots and re-attach once downtime is complete. This will prevent Ironic from interacting with the nodes (and specifically performing LC queue clear). More information on this can be found in upstream docs: Baremetal Operator detaching hosts (https://github.com/metal3-io/baremetal-operator/blob/main/docs/api.md#detaching-hosts)
