From 187b5dc3fb75c4c3a0510226f136d1c4db5881c6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Charlle Dias Date: Mon, 19 Sep 2016 18:27:24 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] Clarify when oneview node can be managed by ironic This change intends to warn the cloud administrators that the driver/ironic can control the power state of the OneView nodes, and thus can revert any user's action. This will not happen in case the machine has a server profile assigned by another OneView user. Therefore, the information was added to the OneView driver's documentation.
