Add server power on if firmware upgrade is stalled

[nagadeesh-nagaraja]

Fixes #263

Summary by CodeRabbit

• New Features
  • Firmware updates can now recover when scheduled jobs remain stuck and the server is powered off: after the configured timeout, the system requests a power-on and avoids repeating the request for the same incident.
  • The recovery timeout is configurable with --scheduled-job-power-on-timeout and defaults to 30 minutes. Set it to a nonpositive value to disable this recovery behavior.
• Improvements
  • The default resync interval is now 2 minutes, down from 10 minutes.

📝 Walkthrough

The reconciler now supports timeout-based power-on handling for stalled scheduled component jobs. It tracks progress only when relevant status changes, and the command exposes the timeout setting. The default resync interval is now two minutes.

Changes: Scheduled Job Power-On

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Timeout configuration and progress tracking cmd/main.go, internal/controller/system/firmwareupdate_controller.go	The command adds the scheduled-job power-on timeout flag and passes its value to the reconciler. The reconciler runs the vendor handler before checking the progress deadline and advances LastProgressTime only when tracked status changes or no prior timestamp exists.
Scheduled-job power-on handling internal/controller/system/firmware_dell.go, internal/controller/system/firmwareupdate_controller_test.go, internal/controller/system/suite_test.go	Dell job tracking identifies scheduled jobs and checks server power state. When the timeout elapses while the server is off, the handler requests power-on and records a condition. Tests cover disabled and unexpired timeouts, repeat-call suppression, and condition resolution.

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 11706

Stalled firmware jobs now trigger a server power-on after a timeout. If the server accepts the request but does not power on, no further attempt is made and the update stays stuck. This is a narrow recovery gap, not a regression of existing behavior.

Full details: Linked Issues check

Explanation

Issue #263 requires a PowerOn action when a firmware job remains in Scheduled, the server is powered off, and progress is stalled. firmware_dell.go detects these conditions, applies the configured ScheduledJobPowerOnTimeout, calls PowerOn, prevents duplicate calls, and resolves the condition when the incident ends. firmwareupdate_controller.go preserves progress timing and gives the recovery path a reconciliation opportunity before the deadline check. Tests cover the timeout, disabled handling, server state, duplicate prevention, and resolution cases.

Full details: Out of Scope Changes check

Explanation

The changes remain connected to issue #263. The CLI timeout flag, resync interval change, progress tracking changes, controller wiring, Dell recovery logic, and tests support timely detection and safe PowerOn recovery. No unrelated change is demonstrated by the reviewed diff.

Inline comments:
Review comments at @cmd/main.go:
- Around line 161-164: Update the timeout validation or `transitionState`
ordering so eligible scheduled jobs can reach the power-on recovery logic before
`checkProgressDeadline` marks the update failed. Ensure configurations with
`ProgressDeadlineSeconds` shorter than `scheduledJobPowerOnTimeout` are either
rejected as incompatible or handled by processing the job before enforcing the
deadline.

Review comments at @internal/controller/system/firmware_dell.go:
- Around line 407-411: Update the alreadyIssued path in the reconciliation logic
so a successful PowerOn request does not cause indefinite waiting while the
server remains Off. Bound the wait using the existing retry or timeout
mechanism, then retry PowerOn or surface a failure once that bound is reached.
- Around line 399-405: Update the power-state check in the firmware flow to read
the live state and request PowerOn only when it equals ServerOffPowerState.
Preserve the existing no-action behavior when the server is already powered on,
and do not treat other states such as Paused or PoweringOn as Off.
- Line 658: Update handleStuckScheduledJob so the first observation of a
Scheduled job is persisted as progress before evaluating whether it has stalled
or issuing PowerOn; ensure the timeout starts from that observation rather than
an older LastProgressTime.

Review comments at @internal/controller/system/firmwareupdate_controller.go:
- Line 633: Canonicalize the job ID order before comparing progress in the
controller flow that calls FirmwareUpdaterDell.ListJobs and trackComponentJobs.
Sort jobIDs after a successful list and before building ComponentJobs so
equivalent job sets produce the same comparison result.
