This adds a section header so that a "Table of Contents" is displayed on the rendered page. This makes the page consistent with the rest of our developer documentation, since the others all have a Table Of Contents. I also added the word 'provisioning' to qualify what kind of states were being depicted here. (As opposed to power states.) Change-Id: If71679d9a5ee795c6c3a9d912f371ea04cea2753 |

Ironic
Ironic is an integrated OpenStack project which aims to provision bare metal machines instead of virtual machines, forked from the Nova Baremetal driver. It is best thought of as a bare metal hypervisor API and a set of plugins which interact with the bare metal hypervisors. By default, it will use PXE and IPMI in concert to provision and turn on/off machines, but Ironic also supports vendor-specific plugins which may implement additional functionality.
