Github is not the official reference for OpenStack code repositories, and as such should not be used in documentation. Update links that are meant to be links to a project as a whole with links to the project's documentation. Update links directly to code to git.openstack.org. Remove link to tripleo-incubator script for DIB dependencies, as it does way more than we need to, and the dependencies needed differ between DIB elements. Instead we leave this as an exercise to the user (this is documented in the DIB docs). Change-Id: Iee09b6b86628e46dc5e9436bd0f98a40c50244b7
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.
