Import and export configuration
-------------------------------
.. warning::
This feature has been deprecated and is anticipated to be removed once
Ironic has a generalized interface for doing step template articulation
for aspects beyond just "deployment" of baremetal nodes.
The clean and deploy steps provided in this section allow to configure the
system and collect the system inventory using configuration mold files.

The ``idrac`` hardware type management interface steps
``import_configuration`` and ``export_configuration`` steps are
deprecated, and will be removed once a formalized generic step
templating mechanism has been created within Ironic. The Ironic
community is open to reconsidering this decision should the
overall bulk configuration reset/templating model become adopted
by DMTF Redfish as a standardized cross-vendor feature.
