The Ironic community is proud to release Ironic 17.0!
|
|
|
|
Where if it were developer years instead of major versions,
|
|
we would all be very afraid since it already has access to
|
|
the car keys.
|
|
|
|
This release of Ironic includes numerous advancements which extend
|
|
an operator's ability to customize and further extend their deployment
|
|
to meet their needs.
|
|
|
|
* Redfish enhancements including Out of Band RAID configuration management
|
|
and automatic setting of Secure Boot on nodes deployed using
|
|
``redfish``.
|
|
* Deployment enhancements including UEFI Partition Image handling,
|
|
per-instance per-deployments of default interface selections, user
|
|
requestable ``deploy_steps`` at deploy time, IPA file
|
|
injection, and support for setting a node's boot mode via
|
|
``instance_info``.
|
|
* Support for ``system`` scoped Role Based Access controls *and*
|
|
``project`` scoped access is available by default for associated
|
|
nodes when the ``node`` ``owner`` or ``lessee`` fields are set.
|
|
This effort alone added over 1,500 new unit tests.
|
|
* Operator friendly fixes such as memory over-consumption guard for
|
|
memory intensive tasks, vendor hardware aware handling to help
|
|
address issues such as different settings being needed to invoke UEFI,
|
|
and "lazy" loading of database attributes to reduce the overall database
|
|
load.
|
|
|
|
Along with all of this massive amount of work, a number of bugs were fixed
|
|
while we were along the road trip of this development cycle.
|
|
|
|
We sincerely hope you enjoy it!
