Tenks is used by stable branches of OpenStack projects that are still using Python 3.9, but dependencies in master upper constraints have started to drop support for this version [1], since tested runtimes for 2025.2 (Flamingo) target Python 3.10 as a minimum [2]. This replaces support for Python 3.6 which should not be required anymore (all branches are EOL).

Tenks
Tenks is a utility that manages virtual bare metal clusters for development and testing purposes. It offers:
- Declarative definition of clusters using Ansible's familiar YAML syntax
- Automated creation and deletion of virtualised bare metal nodes across any number of hypervisors
- In-built management of Open vSwitch bridges for physical networks
- Registration of nodes and ports with OpenStack Ironic, and creation of OpenStack Nova flavors
- Simple cluster reconfiguration and tear-down
