New Features

• Add mysql_enable_ndb parameter to select mysql storage engine.

• Now the ironic::drivers::redfish class supports the following parameters to provide capabilities to set more parameters of Redfish driver.

  • connection_cache_size

  • auth_type

  • use_swift

17.2.0

• The new ironic::keystone::authtoken::interface parameter has been added, which can be used to set the interface parameter in authtoken middleware.

17.1.0

New Features

• Supports configuring max_command_attempts and command_timeout in ironic::drivers::agent.

• For baremetal operations on DHCPv6-stateful networks multiple IPv6 addresses can now be allocated for neutron ports created for provisioning, cleaning, rescue or inspection. The new parameter ironic::neutron::dhcpv6_stateful_address_count controls the number of addresses to allocate.

• The ironic::drivers::inspector::region_name was added so that operatos can specify the keystone region where identity resources are created.

• The following classes were added to configure keystone credentials used in ironic-inspector.

  • ironic::inspector::ironic

  • ironic::inspector::service_catalog

  • ironic::inspector::swift

• The parameter ironic::pxe::ipxe_name_base has been added, which allows alternative ipxe files to be copied to /tftpboot/ipxe.efi. For example, setting this to ‘ipxe-snponly’ on CentOS8 would result in the source file being /usr/share/ipxe/ipxe-snponly-x86_64.efi.

• Added the parameter port_physnet_cidr_map which takes a hash mapping IP subnet CIDR to physical network. When the physnet_cidr_map processing hook is enabled the physical_network property of baremetal ports is populated based on this mapping.

  • ironic::inspector::swift

• The ironic::inspector::ironic_url parameter is deprecated and now has no effect. Use ironic::inspector::ironic::endpoint_override instead.
