In-band inspection In-band inspection
------------------ ------------------
This is supported by the following drivers:: In-band inspection involves booting a ramdisk on the target node and fetching
information directly from it. This process is more fragile and time-consuming
than the out-of-band inspection, but it is not vendor-specific and works
across a wide range of hardware. In-band inspection is using the
ironic-inspector_ project.
Currently it is supported by the following generic drivers::
pxe_drac
pxe_ipmitool pxe_ipmitool
pxe_ipminative pxe_ipminative
pxe_ssh pxe_ssh
agent_ipmitool
agent_ipminative
agent_ssh
fake_inspector
This feature needs to be explicitly enabled in the configuration It is also the default inspection approach for the following vendor drivers::
pxe_drac
pxe_ucs
pxe_cimc
agent_ucs
agent_cimc
This feature needs to be explicitly enabled in the ironic configuration file
by setting ``enabled = True`` in ``[inspector]`` section. by setting ``enabled = True`` in ``[inspector]`` section.
