When storage network for booting an instance from iSCSI volume is managed by neutron, an IP address for volume connector cannot be registered by an operator in advance. A MAC address can be registered as a volume connector for an Ironic node. The IP address may be required depending on cinder backend drivers. This patch gets an IP address for a volume connector based on a MAC address assigned to a volume connector in ironic. To bind VIFs to ironic ports before connecting a volume, VIFs are attached earlier with a new virt driver API. Nova can get an IP address assigned to a VIF attached to an ironic port by retrieving the port with the MAC address.

In the unfortunate event that bugs are discovered, they should be reported to the appropriate bug tracker. If you obtained the software from a 3rd party operating system vendor, it is often wise to use their own bug tracker for reporting problems. In all other cases use the master OpenStack bug tracker, available at:
