From fa7d29b47eb8f23411265cd4581e077d100d0dc7 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Mark Goddard Date: Fri, 3 Jan 2020 15:07:07 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] Fix overcloud provisioning due to Bifrost IPA rename Kolla recently upgraded bifrost from 7.0.0 to 7.1.0 on the stable/train branch. This switched to IPA builder to build the IPA image, and introduced a rename of the IPA kernel file from ipa.vmlinuz to ipa.kernel, which breaks overcloud provisioning. The iPXE kernel download fails with a 404, since Kayobe introspection rules use ipa.vmlinuz for the driver_info.deploy_kernel URL. This change works around the issue by setting two Bifrost variables, ipa_kernel and ipa_kernel_url, to reference the old kernel filename of ipa.vmlinuz. This works both in the case where the image is downloaded from a URL (ipa_kernel sets the destination file name), and where it is built via 'kayobe seed deployment image build' (kayobe uses the legacy ironic-agent DIB element rather than IPA builder, which creates a hardlink to ipa.vmlinuz). We chose the above approach rather than switching to IPA builder due to it being a less risky change at a time close to release. A future release of Kayobe should switch to IPA builder, but this will be a larger effort.
