A service for managing and provisioning Bare Metal servers.

If ipxe fails to boot download kernel/initrd, it will give up and the boot process will continue with the next boot device, and may end up with a boot on the old disk image. If ipxe has failed to download a file and after the pxe/ipxe_timeout delay, it will now retry to download it instead of giving up. This goto/retry pattern is common with IPXE. This is an example: http://ipxe.org/cmd/autoboot We can hardly implement complex solutions since we have a very limited control over the ipxe version in use.

Ironic
Ironic is an integrated OpenStack project which aims to provision bare metal machines instead of virtual machines, forked from the Nova Baremetal driver. It is best thought of as a bare metal hypervisor API and a set of plugins which interact with the bare metal hypervisors. By default, it will use PXE and IPMI together to provision and turn on/off machines, but Ironic also supports vendor-specific plugins which may implement additional functionality.
