If the agent accepts a command, but is unable to reply to Ironic (which sporadically happens before of the eventlet's TLS implementation), we currently retry the request and fail because the command is already executing. Ironic now detects this situation by checking the list of executing commands after receiving a connection error. If the requested command is last one, we assume that the command request succeeded. Ideally, we should pass a request ID to IPA and then compare it. Such a change would affect the API contract between the agent and Ironic and thus would not be backportable.

Overview
Ironic consists of an API and plug-ins for managing and provisioning physical machines in a security-aware and fault-tolerant manner. It can be used with nova as a hypervisor driver, or standalone service using bifrost. By default, it will use PXE and IPMI to interact with bare metal machines. Ironic also supports vendor-specific plug-ins which may implement additional functionality.
