Type

string

Default

2001:db8::1

This option has a sample default set, which means that its actual default value may vary from the one documented above.

versioned_notifications_topics
Type

list

Default

['ironic_versioned_notifications']

Specifies the topics for the versioned notifications issued by Ironic.

The default value is fine for most deployments and rarely needs to be changed. However, if you have a third-party service that consumes versioned notifications, it might be worth getting a topic for that service. Ironic will send a message containing a versioned notification payload to each topic queue in this list.

rbac_service_project_name
Type

string

Default

service

The project name utilized for Role Based Access Control checks for the reserved service project. This project is utilized for services to have accounts for cross-service communication. Often these accounts require higher levels of access, and effectively this permits accounts from the service to not be restricted to project scoping of responses. i.e. The service project user with a service role will be able to see nodes across all projects, similar to System scoped access. If not set to a value, and all service role access will be filtered matching an owner or lessee, if applicable. If an operator wishes to make behavior visible for all service role users across all projects, then a custom policy must be used to override the default “service_role” rule. It should be noted that the value of “service” is a default convention for OpenStack deployments, but the requsite access and details around end configuration are largely up to an operator if they are doing an OpenStack deployment manually.

Timeout (seconds) for waiting for node inspection. 0 - unlimited.

automated_clean
Type

boolean

Default

True

Mutable

This option can be changed without restarting.

Enables or disables automated cleaning. Automated cleaning is a configurable set of steps, such as erasing disk drives, that are performed on the node to ensure it is in a baseline state and ready to be deployed to. This is done after instance deletion as well as during the transition from a “manageable” to “available” state. When enabled, the particular steps performed to clean a node depend on which driver that node is managed by; see the individual driver’s documentation for details. NOTE: The introduction of the cleaning operation causes instance deletion to take significantly longer. In an environment where all tenants are trusted (eg, because there is only one tenant), this option could be safely disabled.

Type

boolean

Default

True

Mutable

This option can be changed without restarting.

Whether to allow nodes to enter or undergo deploy or cleaning when in maintenance mode. If this option is set to False, and a node enters maintenance during deploy or cleaning, the process will be aborted after the next heartbeat. Automated cleaning or making a node available will also fail. If True (the default), the process will begin and will pause after the node starts heartbeating. Moving it from maintenance will make the process continue.

clean_callback_timeout
Type

integer

Default

1800

rescue_callback_timeout
Type

integer

Default

1800

Minimum Value

0

Timeout (seconds) to wait for a callback from the rescue ramdisk. If the timeout is reached the node will be put in the “rescue failed” provision state. Set to 0 to disable timeout.

soft_power_off_timeout

power_failure_recovery_interval
Type

integer

Default

300

Minimum Value

0

node_history
Type

boolean

Default

True

Mutable

This option can be changed without restarting.

Boolean value, default True, if node event history is to be recorded. Errors and other noteworthy events in relation to a node are journaled to a database table which incurs some additional load.

Type

integer

Default

300

Minimum Value

node_history_minimum_days
Type

integer

Default

0

Minimum Value

0

Mutable

This option can be changed without restarting.

The minimum number of days to explicitly keep on hand in the database history entries for nodes. This is exclusive from the [conductor]node_history_max_entries setting as users of this setting are anticipated to need to retain history by policy.

Priority to run automated verify steps provided in interface.step_name:priority format,e.g. management.clear_job_queue:123. The option can be specified multiple times to define priorities for multiple steps. If set to 0, this specific step will not run during verification.

automatic_lessee
Type

boolean

Default

False

Mutable

This option can be changed without restarting.

If the conductor should record the Project ID indicated by Keystone for a requested deployment. Allows rights to be granted to directly access the deployed node as a lessee within the RBAC security model. The conductor does not record this value otherwise, and this information is not backfilled for prior instances which have been deployed.

max_concurrent_deploy
Type

integer

Default

250

Minimum Value

1

Mutable

This option can be changed without restarting.

The maximum number of concurrent nodes in deployment which are permitted in this Ironic system. If this limit is reached, new requests will be rejected until the number of deployments in progress is lower than this maximum. As this is a security mechanism requests are not queued, and this setting is a global setting applying to all requests this conductor receives, regardless of access rights. The concurrent deployment limit cannot be disabled.

max_concurrent_clean
Type

integer

Default

50

Minimum Value

1

Mutable

This option can be changed without restarting.

The maximum number of concurrent nodes in cleaning which are permitted in this Ironic system. If this limit is reached, new requests will be rejected until the number of nodes in cleaning is lower than this maximum. As this is a security mechanism requests are not queued, and this setting is a global setting applying to all requests this conductor receives, regardless of access rights. The concurrent clean limit cannot be disabled.

disable_deep_image_inspection
Type

boolean

Default

False

Security Option to permit an operator to disable file content inspections. Under normal conditions, the conductor will inspect requested image contents which are transferred through the conductor. Disabling this option is not advisable and opens the risk of unsafe images being processed which may allow an attacker to leverage unsafe features in various disk image formats to perform a variety of unsafe and potentially compromising actions. This option is not mutable, and requires a service restart to change.

conductor_always_validates_images
Type

boolean

Default

False

Security Option to enable the conductor to always inspect the image content of any requested deploy, even if the deployment would have normally bypassed the conductor’s cache. When this is set to False, the Ironic-Python-Agent is responsible for any necessary image checks. Setting this to True will result in a higher utilization of resources (disk space, network traffic) as the conductor will evaluate all images. This option is not mutable, and requires a service restart to change. This option requires [conductor]disable_deep_image_inspection to be set to False.

permitted_image_formats
Type

list

Default

['raw', 'qcow2', 'iso']

Mutable

This option can be changed without restarting.

The supported list of image formats which are permitted for deployment with Ironic. If an image format outside of this list is detected, the image validation logic will fail the deployment process.

disable_file_checksum
Type

boolean

Default

False

Deprecated Security option: In the default case, image files have their checksums verified before undergoing additional conductor side actions such as image conversion. Enabling this option opens the risk of files being replaced at the source without the user’s knowledge.

Warning

This option is deprecated for removal. Its value may be silently ignored in the future.

disable_support_for_checksum_files
Type

boolean

Default

False

Security option: By default Ironic will attempt to retrieve a remote checksum file via HTTP(S) URL in order to validate an image download. This is functionality aligning with ironic-python-agent support for standalone users. Disabling this functionality by setting this option to True will create a more secure environment, however it may break users in an unexpected fashion.

Finally the name of a binding method that must be present in tokens.

service_token_roles
Type

list

Default

['service']

A choice of roles that must be present in a service token. Service tokens are allowed to request that an expired token can be used and so this check should tightly control that only actual services should be sending this token. Roles here are applied as an ANY check so any role in this list must be present. For backwards compatibility reasons this currently only affects the allow_expired check.

service_token_roles_required

In some configurations it may be preferable to use the virtual hostname instead, for example if the server uses the Server Name Indication TLS extension (rfc6066) to provide a certificate per virtual host. Set ssl_verify_vhost to True if the server’s SSL certificate uses the virtual host name instead of the DNS name.

If the scopes do not match, an InvalidScope exception will be raised. If False, a message will be logged informing operators that policies are being invoked with mismatching scope.

enforce_new_defaults
Type

boolean

Default

False

This option controls whether or not to use old deprecated defaults when evaluating policies. If True, the old deprecated defaults are not going to be evaluated. This means if any existing token is allowed for old defaults but is disallowed for new defaults, it will be disallowed. It is encouraged to enable this flag along with the enforce_scope flag so that you can get the benefits of new defaults and scope_type together. If False, the deprecated policy check string is logically OR’d with the new policy check string, allowing for a graceful upgrade experience between releases with new policies, which is the default behavior.

Type

string

Default

SECRET_KEY

Secret key(s) to use for encrypting context data for performance profiling.

This string value should have the following format: <key1>[,<key2>,…<keyn>], where each key is some random string. A user who triggers the profiling via the REST API has to set one of these keys in the headers of the REST API call to include profiling results of this node for this particular project.

Both “enabled” flag and “hmac_keys” config options should be set to enable profiling. Also, to generate correct profiling information across all services at least one key needs to be consistent between OpenStack projects. This ensures it can be used from client side to generate the trace, containing information from all possible resources.
