Steve Baker d61b7bd843 Make _get_efi_bootloaders return relative paths
To make this function useful for purposes other than efibootmgr
entries, this change moves the path manipulation to _run_efibootmgr.

This change also adds boot*.efi entries to BOOTLOADERS_EFI so that it
includes every entry in the UEFI Spec 2.9[1] Table 3-2 UEFI Image
Types.

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.
