Dmitry Tantsur 9cfdc3f51d Only mention IPA in the quick start and user guides for DevStack
The old ramdisk is deprecated, so we should not really default to it.
Also this guide makes an assumption that agent_* and pxe_* drivers
can't be used together, which is no longer the case, as IPA handles both.

Consolidate the example local.conf into one enabling both pxe_* and agent_*
drivers with IPA and create a separate page for explaining difference between
these two.

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.

Project Resources

Project status, bugs, and blueprints are tracked on Launchpad:
