When using the 'ironic' Bifrost inventory source to obtain an Ansible inventory from ironic, if any nodes have multiple ports then the resulting inventory contains a 'nics' list variable where each item has the same MAC address. This change fixes this issue by reinitialising each new_nic variable such that all items in the nics list do not reference the same dict. We also introduce a couple of unit tests for the ironic inventory source - one to test the simple case of a single node with a single NIC, another to test the broken case of a single node with multiple NICS.

Vagrant support for developers
Bifrost vagrant file for developers can be found in the
tools/vagrant_dev_env
directory. Running
vagrant up
from within this folder will bring up an Ubuntu
Trusty box with Bifrost installed.
By default, the VM will have three interfaces:
- eth0 - connected to a NAT network
- eth1 - connected to Host-only network named: vboxnet1
- eth2 - bridged - adapter must be set in Vagrantfile
Walkthrough done on OS X
Setup vagrant by:
- Installing git
- Installing virtualbox
- Installing vagrant
- Installing ansible
Configure Vagrant with the correct box:
vagrant box add ubuntu/trusty64
Clone bifrost repo:
git clone https://github.com/openstack/bifrost.git
Change into the bifrost directory:
cd bifrost/tools/vagrant_dev_env
Edit the Vagrantfile:
- Change the
bifrost.vm.network
public_network
value to a valid network interface to allow Bare Metal connectivity - Change
public_key
to correct key name - Change
network_interface
to match your needs
Boot the VM with:
vagrant up
Installation Options
Ansible is installed within the VM directly from source or from the
path set by ANSIBLE_GIT_URL
. You can modify the path of
installation by setting ANSIBLE_INSTALL_ROOT
environment
variable. The default value is /opt/stack
. When set in the
host, this variable will also be set as an environment variable inside
the VM for use by test scripts.
Note:
Only the ansible installation path is configurable at this point using the environment variable. All other dependencies will still continue to cloned under
/opt/stack
.
