Dmitry Tantsur 00ad03b709 Fixes minor issues in the read() retries patch
Follow-up to commit c5b97eb781.

Two things slipped through the cracks:
* ImageDownloadError was instantiated incorrectly, resulting in a wrong
  error message. This was uncovered by using assertRaisesRegext in tests.
* We allowed calling write(None). This was uncovered by avoiding sleep(4)
  in tests and enabling more failed calls before timeout.

Ironic Python Agent

Team and repository tags

image

Overview

An agent for controlling and deploying Ironic controlled baremetal nodes.

The ironic-python-agent works with the agent driver in Ironic to provision the node. Starting with ironic-python-agent running on a ramdisk on the unprovisioned node, Ironic makes API calls to ironic-python-agent to provision the machine. This allows for greater control and flexibility of the entire deployment process.

The ironic-python-agent may also be used with the original Ironic pxe drivers as of the Kilo OpenStack release.

Building the IPA deployment ramdisk

For more information see the Image Builder section of the Ironic Python Agent developer guide.

Using IPA with devstack

This is covered in the Deploying Ironic with DevStack section of the Ironic dev-quickstart guide.
