On old versions of Ironic one would set the deploy kernel and deploy ramdisk in the Flavor as extra_specs and the driver would populate the Ironic Node with that information. But, since a deploy ramdisk is driver dependent (the DIB ramdisk doesn't work with agent_* drivers for example) Ironic moved to a model where these parameters are specified when enrolling the Node (Just like the driver). We kept it working with the Flavor's extra_specs for backward compability reasons for more than one cycle. Now this patch is removing the Flavor's extra_spec way of setting the deploy ramdisk and kernel from the Ironic Nova driver. Change-Id: I0727126770e6c79c898560a34e91a10686696d82
OpenStack Nova README
OpenStack Nova provides a cloud computing fabric controller, supporting a wide variety of virtualization technologies, including KVM, Xen, LXC, VMware, and more. In addition to its native API, it includes compatibility with the commonly encountered Amazon EC2 and S3 APIs.
OpenStack Nova 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.
Nova primarily consists of a set of Python daemons, though it requires and integrates with a number of native system components for databases, messaging and virtualization capabilities.
To keep updated with new developments in the OpenStack project follow @openstack on Twitter.
To learn how to deploy OpenStack Nova, consult the documentation available online at:
For information about the different compute (hypervisor) drivers supported by Nova, read this page on the wiki:
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:
Developers wishing to work on the OpenStack Nova project should always base their work on the latest Nova code, available from the master GIT repository at:
Developers should also join the discussion on the mailing list, at:
