It is difficult to have a universal default for the retry_timeout option in the [impi] configuration section. This patch adds documentation of the tradeoffs involved, while leaving the conservative default in place. Closes-Bug: 1383432 Change-Id: Ic7973cf7fee60cc817e5c0f5f9bfc84b3bca91c7
Ironic
Ironic is an integrated OpenStack project which aims to provision bare metal machines instead of virtual machines, forked from the Nova Baremetal driver. It is best thought of as a bare metal hypervisor API and a set of plugins which interact with the bare metal hypervisors. By default, it will use PXE and IPMI in concert to provision and turn on/off machines, but Ironic also supports vendor-specific plugins which may implement additional functionality.
