By default, grub2-mkconfig scans everything to look for other environments and then load those into the grub configuration. It makes sense, but on newer versions of grub2 in distribution images, os-prober is taking an exceptionally long time in some cases where more than one storage device exists with other filesystems. As a result, of the os-prober execution by grub2-mkconfig, the bootloader installation can completely time out and fail the deployment. This is presently experienced with metalsmith on centos8. There are numerous sporatic reports of issues like this issue where grub2-mkconfig hangs for some period of time, and this is observable on Centos8.2 in our CI. While one report[0] mentions this issue, Another bug [1] has the dialog that actually helps us frame the context as to what we likely should do. Also, fixes the unit testing so we actually test if we're running with grub2. :\ [0]: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1744693 [1]: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1709682 Depends-On: https://review.opendev.org/#/c/748315 Change-Id: I14bf299afef3a1ddb2006fe5f182d7f0d249e734 |

Ironic Python Agent
Team and repository tags
Overview
An agent for controlling and deploying Ironic controlled baremetal nodes.
The ironic-python-agent works with the agent driver in Ironic to provision the node. Starting with ironic-python-agent running on a ramdisk on the unprovisioned node, Ironic makes API calls to ironic-python-agent to provision the machine. This allows for greater control and flexibility of the entire deployment process.
The ironic-python-agent may also be used with the original Ironic pxe drivers as of the Kilo OpenStack release.
Building the IPA deployment ramdisk
For more information see the Image Builder section of the Ironic Python Agent developer guide.
Using IPA with devstack
This is covered in the Deploying Ironic with DevStack section of the Ironic dev-quickstart guide.
