Hardware Requirements
---------------------
This section describes the hardware requirements and server preparation for a
**StarlingX R7.0 bare metal Ironic** deployment configuration.
.. contents::
:local:
:depth: 1
*****************************
Minimum hardware requirements
*****************************
* One or more bare metal hosts as Ironic nodes as well as tenant instance node.
* BMC support on bare metal host and controller node connectivity to the BMC IP
address of bare metal hosts.
For controller nodes:
* Additional NIC port on both controller nodes for connecting to the
ironic-provisioning-net.
For worker nodes:
* If using a flat data network for the Ironic provisioning network, an additional
NIC port on one of the worker nodes is required.
* Alternatively, use a VLAN data network for the Ironic provisioning network and
simply add the new data network to an existing interface on the worker node.
* Additional switch ports / configuration for new ports on controller, worker,
and Ironic nodes, for connectivity to the Ironic provisioning network.
***********************************
BMC configuration of Ironic node(s)
***********************************
Enable BMC and allocate a static IP, username, and password in the BIOS settings.
For example, set:
IP address
10.10.10.126
username
root
password
test123
