Driver Support
|
||||||
|
==============
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Testing Mode
|
||||||
|
------------
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
When setup in testing mode, bifrost configures ironic to utilize the
|
||||||
|
``agent_ssh`` driver to help facilitate the deployment of local test
|
||||||
|
machines.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Default Mode
|
||||||
|
------------
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
When not in testing mode, bifrost enables the following ironic drivers:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* agent_ipmitool
|
||||||
|
* pxe_amt
|
||||||
|
* agent_ilo
|
||||||
|
* agent_ucs
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
OneView Driver Support
|
||||||
|
----------------------
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
As the OneView driver requires configuration information to be populated
|
||||||
|
in the ironic.conf configuration file that points to the OneView manager
|
||||||
|
node as well as credentials, bifrost does not support installation and
|
||||||
|
configuration of the driver.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Please reference the ironic OneView driver documentation at if you wish
|
||||||
|
to update the configuration after installation in order to leverage bifrost
|
||||||
|
for mass node deployment.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The OneView documentation can be found
|
||||||
|
`here <http://docs.openstack.org/developer/ironic/drivers/oneview.html>`_.

|
||||||
|
- The README.rst file was updated to include a list
|
||||||
|
of the drivers enabled by default, as well as what
|
||||||
|
driver is available in testing mode.
|
||||||
|
- A pointer was added to the README.rst file for users
|
||||||
|
possibly wishing to utilize the OneView driver for mass
|
||||||
|
machine deployment via bifrost, since the driver cannot
|
||||||
|
be enabled by default.
