While the patch looks sane and the change worked locally, it has broke the ironic-inspector gate. As we're close to deprecating the DIB ramdisk in favor of IPA, I suggest reverting it. This reverts commit 802f14862cf46553c5ca5ce08d6ac8731aa01188. Change-Id: I0525e545cb2fe8ce184312a2f9bbe3763904f61a Closes-Bug: #1534648
ironic-discoverd-ramdisk
ironic-discoverd [1] is a StackForge project for conducting hardware properties discovery via booting a special discovery ramdisk and interrogating hardware from within it.
This ramdisk collects hardware information from the machine it's booted on and posts it to the URL provided via kernel argument 'discoverd_callback_url'.
The hardware information collected by the ramdisk are:
- BMC IP address (may be required for associating with existing node in Ironic)
- CPU count and architecture
- Memory amount in MiB
- Hard drive size in GiB
- IP and mac addresses for all NICs except the loopback
The machine is halted at the end of the process.
