Ironic
|
|
======
|
|
|
|
Ironic is an Incubated 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
|
|
in concert to provision and turn on/off machines, but Ironic
|
|
also supports vendor-specific plugins which may implement additional
|
|
functionality.
