Our provisioning server running MAAS has been sidegraded from running on an OCP node to running on one of our ProLiant DL320e Gen8 v2 servers. We expect intermittent DHCP outages should become less frequent due to it now sporting two SSDs in ZFS RAID-1 (which should also help in case of drive failure) and comparatively higher single-core performance.
Moving forwards, we're planning on upgrading our infra nodes from running on decades old HDDs to running on SSDs as well, which should improve our overall server cluster stability and responsiveness.
