The objectify decorator was used to convert DB objects into RPC objects, but it's not being used anymore since out objects API already has correspondent methods to match the dbapi ones. Also, since dbapi methods didn't get a context the decorator was forming bad RPC objects without a context stored within it. Change-Id: I892ab6ee2236af040c7f8effcfdfecb293e13ab6 Partial-Bug: #1314732
Ironic
Ironic is an Incubated 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.
