features:
- Addition of the provision state target verb of ``adopt``
which allows an operator to move a node into an ``active``
state from ``manageable`` state, without performing a deployment
operation on the node. This can be used to represent nodes that have
been previously deployed by other means that will now be managed by
ironic and be later released to the available hardware pool.
other:
- When a node is enrolled into ironic, upon transition to the
``manageable`` state, the current power state of the node is
recorded. Once the node is adopted and in an ``active`` state,
that recorded power state will be enforced by ironic unless an
operator changes the power state in ironic. This was the default
behavior of ironic prior to the adoption feature.
