The troubleshooting kernel command line option nomodeset unfortunately changes the way framebuffer interactions work with graphics devices which in some cases can result in kernel memory to be used for graphics updates. When this happens on some specific hardware common in rack mount servers with baseboard management controllers, this can cause the memory bus to become locked for a brief time while the graphics update is occuring. This locked memory bus means disk IO can become blocked, and network cards can overflow their buffers resulting in packet loss on top of the latency incurred by the graphics update executing. As such, we've removed the nomodeset option from default usage and added a note describing its removal to the documentation along with a release note.

Ironic
Team and repository tags
Overview
Ironic consists of an API and plug-ins for managing and provisioning physical machines in a security-aware and fault-tolerant manner. It can be used with nova as a hypervisor driver, or standalone service using bifrost. By default, it will use PXE and IPMI to interact with bare metal machines. Ironic also supports vendor-specific plug-ins which may implement additional functionality.
Ironic is distributed under the terms of the Apache License, Version 2.0. The full terms and conditions of this license are detailed in the LICENSE file.
