We broke compatibility with earlier versions when we landed I1fb59b43912afb4b2f85ecade1ee1a7154c9efba. This has since been bumped in global requirements, but we should proactively land this before the bot does to avoid breaking people (like tripleo, perhaps).

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.
