virsh power driver shouldn't allow passing in extra parameters

Hi there,

I am aware of this change and have been trying to work around it.

whenever I do not assign a hostname to VMWare, running this command:
virsh -c esx://root@<vmware_IP> list --all
will output:

error: failed to connect to the hypervisor
error: internal error: curl_easy_perform() returned an error: SSL peer certificate or SSH remote key was not OK (51) : SSL: certificate subject name (<vmware_IP>) does not match target host name '<vmware_IP>'

I then generated SSL certs and exchanged them between the MAAS servers and VMWare until I am able to list the VMs using:
virsh -c esx://root@<vmware_hostname> list --all

Now the problem is that when I try to add them through MAAS, using: esx://root@<vmware_hostname>,
MAAS does not read the hostname and translate them properly, this is the error message:

[info] BMC could not save extracted IP address '<vmware_hostname>': 'failed to detect a valid IP address from '<vmware_hostname>''

Since this has just been recently, there's not alot of resources for this fix. I hope someone here can help!

Mark,

Please file a separate bug for the issue you have reported above as I believe this is unrelated wo what you are hitting. From the looks of it, the code that verifies the hostname/IP is most likely causing issues here.
