Create flavors for use with the Bare Metal service

You'll need to create a special bare metal flavor in the Compute service. The flavor is mapped to the bare metal node through the hardware specifications.

  1. Change these to match your hardware:

    $ RAM_MB=1024
$ CPU=2
$ DISK_GB=100
$ ARCH={i686|x86_64}

  2. Create the bare metal flavor by executing the following command:

    $ nova flavor-create my-baremetal-flavor auto $RAM_MB $DISK_GB $CPU

    Note

    You can replace auto with your own flavor id.

  3. Set the architecture as extra_specs information of the flavor. This will be used to match against the properties of bare metal nodes:

    $ nova flavor-key my-baremetal-flavor set cpu_arch=$ARCH

  4. Associate the deploy ramdisk and kernel images with the ironic node:

    $ ironic node-update $NODE_UUID add \
    driver_info/deploy_kernel=$DEPLOY_VMLINUZ_UUID \
    driver_info/deploy_ramdisk=$DEPLOY_INITRD_UUID
