The ``xclarity`` hardware type, as well as the supporting
driver interfaces have been deprecated and are scheduled to be removed
from ironic in the Stein development cycle. This is due to the lack of
operational Third Party testing to help ensure that the support for
Lenovo XClarity is functional.
The ``xclarity`` hardware type was introduced at the end of the Queens
development cycle. During implementation of Third Party CI, the Lenovo
team encountered some unforseen delays. Lenovo is continuing to work
towards Third Party CI, and upon establishment and verification of
functional Third Party CI, this deprecation will be rescinded.
