Collects PCI class, revision, and bus information for the pci-devices collector, these metrics as well as vendor id and device id are components which can be used to construct device information like lspci output, which is how cyborg agent collects accelerator devices. Accelerator device based scheduling is possible after ironic has such information in place. Change-Id: I6c37c554f37dd5f1d21c8fd4fad2a4f44a3c75d7 Story: 2007971 Task: 40474
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.
