Hardware introspection for OpenStack Bare Metal

Warning

This project is now in the maintenance mode and new deployments of it are discouraged. Please use built-in in-band inspection in ironic instead. For existing deployments, see the migration guide.

Introduction

This is an auxiliary service for discovering hardware properties for a node managed by Ironic. Hardware introspection or hardware properties discovery is a process of getting hardware parameters required for scheduling from a bare metal node, given its power management credentials (e.g. IPMI address, user name and password).
