ironic-inspect-node

Invokes ironic node introspection logic using the os_ironic_inspect module.

Requirements

None at this time. See Dependencies.

Role Variables

uuid: The UUID of the node to invoke ironic node introspection upon. This variable is not required if the node name is supplied as ironic requires unique names.

name: A node name to invoke inspection upon. This variable is not required if the node uuid value is supplied.

noauth_mode: Controls if the module is called in noauth mode. By default, this is the standard mode of operation, however if set to false, the role utilizes os_client_config which expects a clouds.yml file. More information about this file format can be found at: http://docs.openstack.org/developer/os-client-config/

cloud_name: Optional: String value defining a clouds.yaml entry for the ansible module to leverage. inspection_wait_timeout: Integer value in seconds, defaults to 1800. This value may need to be adjusted if the underlying shade library's default timeout is insufficient for a node to perform an inspection sequence with. The timeout assumption in the library was based upon there being three phases to complete an inspection sequence, BIOS POST, (i)PXE, and then booting of the ramdisk and IPA. In most cases, each phase should be completed under 300 seconds, although that will vary based upon the hardware configuration.

inventory_dhcp: A boolean value, defaulted to false, which allows dnsmasq to configure the IP of the machines, rather than putting the IP configuration of the machine in the config drive. If set to true, the role will create a file for each machine under /etc/dnsmasq.d/bifrost.dhcp-hosts.d containing the mac, name of the machine, lease time and optionally the IP address that will be offered to the machine by DHCP. This optional IP is controlled by the inventory_dhcp_static_ip parameter.

inventory_dhcp_static_ip: A boolean value, defaulted to true, which configures the mechanism for setting up the IP of machines when inventory_dhcp is enabled. If set to true, it will read the value of the key 'provisioning_ipv4_address' from the inventory section of each machine and dnsmasq will assign that IP to each machine accordingly. Note, that if you don't assign the key 'provisioning_ipv4_address' it will default to the value of 'ipv4_address'. If set to false, dnsmasq will assign IPs automatically from the configured DHCP range.

inventory_dns: A boolean value, defaulted to false, which causes the role to update a template file and reload dnsmasq upon each update in order to perform static dns addressing utilizing the ipv4_address parameter.

Dependencies

This role is dependent upon the os_ironic_inspect module being available for use.
