The meteal3 job has traditionally operated as a very tight memory condition for quite some time. Specifically running minikube, ironic, and two VMs in 8 GB of memory also influenced the job design. However, with the removal of eventlet, this memory footprint and process model swells a little bit creating conditions where the job is essentially guarenteed to fail. Further discussion with Riccardo, one of the other Ironic/Metal3 contributros yielded that they were already thinking of increasing the size of the VM because they had been encountering memory issues. Given that this job already runs lean, albeit with no swap which is intentional to prevent disk IO generated noisey neighbor conditions, the only real choice is to just increase the VM size to the next realistic size in OpenDev CI.

Ironic
Overview
Ironic consists of an API and plug-ins for managing and provisioning physical machines in a security-aware and fault-tolerant manner. It can be used with nova as a hypervisor driver, or standalone service using bifrost. By default, it will use PXE and IPMI to interact with bare metal machines. Ironic also supports vendor-specific plug-ins which may implement additional functionality.
