Built-in hardware managers

GenericHardwareManager
|
|
======================
|
|
|
|
This is the default hardware manager for ironic-python-agent. It provides
|
|
support for :ref:`hardware-inventory` and the default deploy and clean steps.
|
|
|
|
Deploy steps
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
``deploy.write_image(node, ports, image_info, configdrive=None)``
|
|
A deploy step backing the ``write_image`` deploy step of the
|
|
:ironic-doc:`direct deploy interface
|
|
<admin/interfaces/deploy.html#direct-deploy>`.
|
|
Should not be used explicitly, but can be overridden to provide a custom
|
|
way of writing an image.
|
|
``deploy.erase_device_metadata(node, ports)``
|
|
Erases partition tables from all recognized disk devices. Can be used with
|
|
software RAID since it requires empty holder disks.
|
|
``raid.apply_configuration(node, ports, raid_config, delete_existing=True)``
|
|
Apply a software RAID configuration. It belongs to the ``raid`` interface
|
|
and must be used through the :ironic-doc:`ironic RAID feature
|
|
<admin/raid.html>`.
|
|
|
|
Clean steps
|
|
-----------
|
|
|
|
``deploy.erase_devices``
|
|
Securely erases all information from all recognized disk devices.
|
|
Relatively fast when secure ATA erase is available, otherwise can take
|
|
hours, especially on a virtual environment. Enabled by default.
|
|
``deploy.erase_device_metadata``
|
|
Erases partition tables from all recognized disk devices. Can be used as
|
|
an alternative to the much longer ``erase_devices`` step.
|
|
``raid.create_configuration``
|
|
Create a RAID configuration. This step belongs to the ``raid`` interface
|
|
and must be used through the :ironic-doc:`ironic RAID feature
|
|
<admin/raid.html>`.
|
|
``raid.delete_configuration``
|
|
Delete the RAID configuration. This step belongs to the ``raid`` interface
|
|
and must be used through the :ironic-doc:`ironic RAID feature
|
|
<admin/raid.html>`.
