Julia Kreger a12a5744b6 Add fstab pointer to EFI partition 
Adds support for the EFI partition to be appended to fstab so the
filesystem can be automounted and EFI loader updated should the
deployed operating system need to do so.

This should enable bootloaders to be upgraded by linux based
operating systems after the instance has been deployed when
a partition image was utilized for the initial deployment.

Ironic Python Agent

Team and repository tags

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.
