Ironic is flexible for x86/x86_64 servers by supporting BIOS and UEFI. But to deploy servers of other architectures, such as aarch64 or ppc64, configuration(PXE boot file and config template) must be modified, which means one Ironic conductor can only deploy baremetal machines of one architecture. This patch adds multi arch deployment support. For example, to deploy x86_64 and aarch64 servers by one Ironic conductor. Closes-Bug: #1582964 Change-Id: I628320aeb44b232a262d0843bc726a68d297e1f8

features:
|
|
- Support multi architecture deployment. E.g., to
|
|
deploy x86_64, aarch64 servers by one ironic conductor.
|
|
Two new config options, ``pxe_config_template_by_arch``
|
|
and ``pxe_bootfile_name_by_arch``, are introduced to
|
|
support multi architecture deployment. They are
|
|
dictionary values to hold pxe config templates and
|
|
boot files for multiple architectures, with cpu_arch
|
|
property per node as the key. If cpu_arch is not found
|
|
in dictionary, options ``pxe_config_template``,
|
|
``pxe_bootfile_name``, ``uefi_pxe_config_template``,
|
|
``uefi_pxe_bootfile_name`` will be used as usual.
