This updates the install guide so that it reflects the changes we are doing on master branch for the Liberty release, instead of for the Kilo release. Change-Id: If13c6b8d3f3abec12748f903227cdb553f8ee9f1
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.
