Currently the vhost management in ironic::pxe has its own logic to inject the Listen option into the vhost configuration file instead of the core apache configuration file but these two should be effectively same as long as vhosts are properly configured. Because we globally use the implementation in puppetlabs-apache which adds Listen to the core file, this replaces own mechanism by that existing implementation to simplify the own logics.

Overview
The ironic module is a part of OpenStack, an effort by the OpenStack infrastructure team to provide continuous integration testing and code review for OpenStack and OpenStack community projects as part of the core software. The module itself is used to flexibly configure and manage the baremetal service for OpenStack.
Module Description
Setup
What the ironic module affects:
- Ironic, the baremetal service for OpenStack.
Installing Ironic
puppet module install openstack/ironic
Beginning with ironic
To utilize the ironic module's functionality you will need to declare multiple resources. This is not an exhaustive list of all the components needed. We recommend that you consult and understand the core openstack documentation to assist you in understanding the available deployment options.
# enable Ironic resources
class { 'ironic':
default_transport_url => 'rabbit://ironic:an_even_bigger_secret@127.0.0.1:5672/ironic',
database_connection => 'mysql://ironic:a_big_secret@127.0.0.1/ironic?charset=utf8',
}
class { 'ironic::db::mysql':
password => 'a_big_secret',
}
class { 'ironic::keystone::auth':
password => 'a_big_secret',
}
class { 'ironic::client': }
class { 'ironic::conductor': }
class { 'ironic::api':
admin_password => 'a_big_secret',
}
class { 'ironic::drivers::ipmi': }
Examples of usage also can be found in the *examples* directory.
Implementation
--------------
### puppet-ironic
puppet-ironic is a combination of Puppet manifest and ruby code to delivery configuration and extra functionality through types and providers.
### Types
#### ironic_config
The `ironic_config` provider is a children of the ini_setting provider. It allows one to write an entry in the `/etc/ironic/ironic.conf` file.
```puppet
ironic_config { 'DEFAULT/my_ip' :
value => 127.0.0.1,
}
This will write my_ip=127.0.0.1
in the [DEFAULT]
section.
name
Section/setting name to manage from ironic.conf
value
The value of the setting to be defined.
secret
Whether to hide the value from Puppet logs. Defaults to false
.
ensure_absent_val
If value is equal to ensure_absent_val then the resource will behave as if ensure => absent
was specified. Defaults to <SERVICE DEFAULT>
Limitations
None
Development
