We can not move the remaining db-related options to the [database] group because they are defined in oslo-incubator. sqlalchemy/models.py incorrectly sets options as default. That's why we need to move mysql_engine to [database] group Fixes: bug #1193499 Change-Id: Ic485fb28279e5ceeed6e21b4dee2a37a9eea6d6c
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.
