This patch is making the list_all_block_devices() method to wait for udev to settle it's event queue prior to listing the devices. Sometimes the ironic-python-agent service may start before all devices were detected and end up erroring out because it couldn't find a suitable disk for deployment. Closes-Bug: #1551300 Change-Id: I1ae2062a711115a1ea14b79ae9ace7ddd2fff9d5
ironic-python-agent
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.
