  • This element can be used when building ironic-agent ramdisk. It enables ironic-agent ramdisk to do in-band cleaning operations specific to HP ProLiant hardware.
  • Works with ubuntu and fedora distributions (on which ironic-agent element is supported).
  • Currently the following utilities are installed:
    • proliantutils - This module registers an ironic-python-agent hardware manager for HP ProLiant hardware, which implements in-band cleaning steps. The latest version of proliantutils available is installed. This python module is released with Apache license.
