Browse Source 
This commit updates the proliantutils version required in
Ironic to 2.4.0 for Pike release. This version of
proliantutils includes the following:

  1. Support for Gen10 servers using Redfish protocol.
  2. ``local_gb`` defaults to 0 (zero) when no disk could be
     discovered during inspection.
  3. Provides one-pass disk erase support using HPE SSA CLI when
     sanitize disk erase not supported for Proliant hardware
     manager in IPA.

Overview
========
iLO drivers enable to take advantage of features of iLO management engine in
HPE ProLiant servers. iLO drivers are targeted for HPE ProLiant Gen 8 systems
and above which have `iLO 4 management engine <https://www.hpe.com/us/en/servers/integrated-lights-out-ilo.html>`_.
HPE ProLiant servers. iLO drivers are targeted for HPE ProLiant Gen8 and Gen9
systems which have `iLO 4 management engine`_. From **Pike** release iLO
drivers start supporting ProLiant Gen10 systems which have
`iLO 5 management engine`_. iLO5 conforms to `Redfish`_ API and hence
hardware type ``redfish`` (see :doc:`redfish`) is also an option for this kind
of hardware but it will lack the iLO specific features.
For more details and for up-to-date information (like tested platforms,
known issues, etc), please check the `iLO driver wiki page <https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Ironic/Drivers/iLODrivers>`_.
