openstack-common.conf under "The list of modules to copy from oslo-incubator" section contains some modules that are not used by Ironic code, only by openstack/common modules. Such modules should be removed from openstack-common.conf, as oslo-incubator/update.py can handle internal dependencies. Change-Id: Ifb3cc67efba10dd39e86c1d3a0cc769753de2122 Closes-bug: #1367291
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.
