Unable to provision bare metal with specific vlan

[dnwe]

Experimenting with the bare-metal/tags branches I attempted to order a bare-metal thus:

resource "softlayer_bare_metal" "dnwe" {
  count                = 1
  tags                 = ["dnwe"]
  hostname             = "dnwe${format("%02d", count.index+1)}"
  domain               = "example.com"
  os_reference_code    = "UBUNTU_14_64"
  datacenter           = "lon02"
  fixed_config_preset  = "D2620_64GB_2X1TBSATA_NORAID"
  hourly_billing       = true
  network_speed        = 1000
  private_network_only = true
  private_vlan_id      = "885425"
}

Errors out with:

⁠softlayer_bare_metal.dnwe: Error ordering bare metal server: SoftLayer_Exception_Public: VLANs may not be specified for Bare Metal Server configurations. (HTTP 500)⁠⁠⁠⁠

There seems to be some discussion along similar lines on the internet around package 50 vs 200 (non-fast vs fast provision) that may be related.

Hmm googling around the issue it does seem to be that BARE_METAL_SERVER (package 200) is the only one that has presets, whereas BARE_METAL_INSTANCE (package 50) doesn't. If the fixedConfigPresets do indeed force a fast provision (where you cannot specify VLAN), then perhaps if a vlan_id is specified in the configuration then we could call getActivePresets to extract the CPU, Memory etc. options from the preset and inline those into the request?

@dnwe not a bad idea for now. I would prefer to go further and just allow people to specify cpu/memory/etc. which would be mutually exclusive to the preset setting. will be looking into this.

@renier is there any update on this issue? Is custom baremetal support something in SoftLayer's roadmap?
