Since we have automated cleaning and manual cleaning, the config 'clean_nodes' is a bit confusing since it only refers to automated cleaning. It is replaced with 'automated_clean'. This deprecates the 'clean_nodes' config; the plan is to delete it in Newton cycle. Updates to the documentation to explicitly mention automated vs manual cleaning is done in a separate patch. This includes a reno-style release note about the upgrade impact. Change-Id: I5b4fbac1753cb4213eb151b663490f381b751597 Partial-Bug: #1526290
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 together to provision and turn on/off machines, but Ironic also supports vendor-specific plugins which may implement additional functionality.
