Move abstract definitions of get_properties and validate to BaseInterface and make all interfaces inherit it. This has a side effect of them getting clean steps methods, but they anyway won't be wired in due to a whitelist of interfaces in the conductor. The RAIDInterface contained a mistake: it didn't have an ABCMeta metaclass, so its @abstractmethod definitions didn't work. I've implemented get_properties for it to avoid breaking implementers. Also added interface_type to all interfaces for consistency and for future use in the driver composition work. Change-Id: Ia6708247a99ecdcf73d83e66350e8c309090b7d4 Partial-Bug: #1524745
Ironic
Ironic consists of an API and plug-ins for managing and provisioning physical machines in a security-aware and fault-tolerant manner. It can be used with nova as a hypervisor driver, or standalone service using bifrost. By default, it will use PXE and IPMI to interact with bare metal machines. Ironic also supports vendor-specific plug-ins which may implement additional functionality.
