.. note::
The agent_ssh and pxe_ssh drivers are being deprecated in favor of the
more production-like agent_ipmitool and pxe_ipmitool drivers. When a
\*_ipmitool driver is set and IRONIC_IS_HARDWARE variable is false devstack
will automatically set up `VirtualBMC <https://github.com/openstack/virtualbmc>`_
to control the power state of the virtual baremetal nodes.
.. note::
When running QEMU as non-root user (e.g. ``qemu`` on Fedora or ``libvirt-qemu`` on Ubuntu),
make sure ``IRONIC_VM_LOG_DIR`` points to a directory where QEMU will be able to write.
