Problem
|
|
-------
|
|
If you are using actual hardware as target machines for your CI testing
|
|
then the problem of two jobs trying to use the name target arises. If
|
|
you have one target machine and a maximum number of one jobs running on
|
|
your ironic pipeline at a time, then you won't run into this problem. However,
|
|
one target may not handle the load of ironic's daily patch submissions.

Molten Iron

|
|
`molteniron <https://github.com/openstack/molteniron/>`_
|
|
is a tool that allows you to reserve hardware from a pool at the last minute
|
|
to use in your job. Once finished testing, you can unreserve the hardware
|
|
making it available for the next test job.
