|
|
The Bare Metal as a Service team joyfully announces our OpenStack Stein
|
|
release of ironic 12.1.0. While no steins nor speakers were harmed during
|
|
the development of this release, we might have suffered some hearing
|
|
damage after we learned that we could increase the volume well
|
|
past eleven!
|
|
|
|
Notable items include:
|
|
|
|
* Increased parallelism of power synchronization to improve overall
|
|
conductor efficiency.
|
|
* API fields to support node ``description`` and ``owner`` values.
|
|
* HPE iLO ``ilo5`` and Huawei ``ibmc`` hardware types.
|
|
* Allocations API interface to enable operators to find and select
|
|
bare metal nodes for deployment.
|
|
* JSON-RPC can now be used for ``ironic-api`` to ``ironic-conductor``
|
|
communication as opposed to using an AMQP messaging provider.
|
|
* Support for customizable PXE templates and streamlined deployment
|
|
sequences.
|
|
* Initial support for the definition of "deployment templates" to
|
|
enable operators to define and match customized deployment sequences.
|
|
* Initial work for supporting SmartNIC configuration is included,
|
|
however the Networking Service changes required are not anticipated
|
|
until sometime during the Train development cycle.
|
|
* And numerous bug fixes, including ones for IPv6 and IPMI.
|
|
|
|
This release includes the changes in ironic's ``12.0.0`` release which
|
|
was also released during the Stein development cycle and includes a number
|
|
of improvements for Bare Metal infrastructure operators. More about our
|
|
earlier stein release can be found in our
|
|
`release notes <https://docs.openstack.org/releasenotes/ironic/stein.html#relnotes-12-0-0>`_.
