features:
- OneView drivers now support dynamic allocation of nodes in OneView,
allowing for better resource sharing with non-OpenStack users since Server
Hardware will be allocated only when the node is scheduled to be used. To
enable the new allocation feature for a node, set the flag
``dynamic_allocation=True`` on the node's ``driver_info``.
More information is available at
http://docs.openstack.org/developer/ironic/drivers/oneview.html.
deprecations:
- Deprecates pre-allocation feature for the OneView drivers since it requires
resource allocation to Ironic prior to boot time, which makes Server
Hardware unavailable to non-OpenStack OneView users. Pre-allocation will
be removed in the OpenStack Pike release. All nodes with
``dynamic_allocation=False`` set, or that don't have the ``dynamic_allocation``
flag set, will be assumed to be in pre-allocation. Users may use the REST API
or the ``ironic-oneview-cli`` to migrate nodes from pre-allocation to
dynamic allocation.
