The iLO version is, as far as I remember, the oldest implementation of virtual media in Ironic. Since then a few cool feature have been developed in this area, but they are limited to the code using image_utils (e.g. Redfish). The iLO boot interface only uses image_utils when an ISO needs to be built, but not when one is provided. This patch changes that. There are a few visible side-effects to that: 1) file:/// images are now supported 2) ramdisk_image_download_source is now supported 3) the default caching behavior changes to caching http:// links (previously they were passed to the BMC directly). 4) glance images are supported with backends other than swift Story: #2008987 Task: #42638 Change-Id: I23c21188776c511eddcdaf66a222ce64876678e2

Overview
Ironic consists of an API and plug-ins for managing and provisioning physical machines in a security-aware and fault-tolerant manner. It can be used with nova as a hypervisor driver, or standalone service using bifrost. By default, it will use PXE and IPMI to interact with bare metal machines. Ironic also supports vendor-specific plug-ins which may implement additional functionality.
