We are planning to use functions which are now in ironic-lib. Add notes to functions here which correspond to functions in ironic-lib. To help developers make sure to update both functions until the functions have been deleted from ironic and we start using ironic-lib instead. Change-Id: I943f8170c0dbc62dc8325d48633a939a2726eb4f
Ironic
Ironic is an integrated 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.
