Changing Hardware Types and Interfaces
|
|
--------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
Hardware types and interfaces are enabled in the configuration as described in
|
|
:doc:`/install/enabling-drivers`. Usually, a hardware type is configured on
|
|
enrolling as described in :doc:`/install/enrollment`::
|
|
|
|
openstack baremetal node create --driver <hardware type>
|
|
|
|
Any hardware interfaces can be specified on enrollment as well::
|
|
|
|
openstack baremetal node create --driver <hardware type> \
|
|
--deploy-interface direct --<other>-interface <other implementation>
|
|
|
|
For the remaining interfaces the default value is assigned as described in
|
|
:ref:`hardware_interfaces_defaults`. Both the hardware type and the hardware
|
|
interfaces can be changed later via the node update API.
|
|
|
|
Changing Hardware Interfaces
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
Hardware interfaces can be changed by the following command::
|
|
|
|
openstack baremetal node set <NODE> \
|
|
--deploy-interface direct \
|
|
--<other>-interface <other implementation>
|
|
|
|
The modified interfaces must be enabled and compatible with the current node's
|
|
hardware type.
|
|
|
|
Changing Hardware Type
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
Changing the node's hardware type can pose a problem. When the ``driver``
|
|
field is updated, the final result must be consistent, that is, the resulting
|
|
hardware interfaces must be compatible with the new hardware type. This will
|
|
not work::
|
|
|
|
openstack baremetal node create --name test --driver fake-hardware
|
|
openstack baremetal node set test --driver ipmi
|
|
|
|
This is because the ``fake-hardware`` hardware type defaults to ``fake``
|
|
implementations for some or all interfaces, but the ``ipmi`` hardware type is
|
|
not compatible with them. There are three ways to deal with this situation:
|
|
|
|
#. Provide new values for all incompatible interfaces, for example::
|
|
|
|
openstack baremetal node set test --driver ipmi \
|
|
--boot-interface pxe \
|
|
--deploy-interface iscsi \
|
|
--management-interface ipmitool \
|
|
--power-interface ipmitool
|
|
|
|
#. Request resetting some of the interfaces to their new defaults by using the
|
|
``--reset-<IFACE>-interface`` family of arguments, for example::
|
|
|
|
openstack baremetal node set test --driver ipmi \
|
|
--reset-boot-interface \
|
|
--reset-deploy-interface \
|
|
--reset-management-interface \
|
|
--reset-power-interface
|
|
|
|
.. note:: This feature is available starting with ironic 11.1.0 (Rocky
|
|
series, API version 1.45).
|
|
|
|
#. Request resetting all interfaces to their new defaults::
|
|
|
|
openstack baremetal node set test --driver ipmi --reset-interfaces
|
|
|
|
You can still specify explicit values for some interfaces::
|
|
|
|
openstack baremetal node set test --driver ipmi --reset-interfaces \
|
|
--deploy-interface direct
|
|
|
|
.. note:: This feature is available starting with ironic 11.1.0 (Rocky
|
|
series, API version 1.45).

Unsupported drivers
|
|
-------------------
|
|
|
|
The following drivers were declared as unsupported in ironic Newton release
|
|
and as of Ocata release they are removed from ironic:
|
|
|
|
- AMT driver - available as part of ironic-staging-drivers_
|
|
- iBoot driver - available as part of ironic-staging-drivers_
|
|
- Wake-On-Lan driver - available as part of ironic-staging-drivers_
|
|
- Virtualbox drivers
|
|
- SeaMicro drivers
|
|
- MSFT OCS drivers
|
|
|
|
The SSH drivers were removed in the Pike release. Similar functionality can be
|
|
achieved either with VirtualBMC_ or using libvirt drivers from
|
|
ironic-staging-drivers_.
