ipmitool does not support OPERATOR priv level

[aeva black]

If the BMC / IPMI credentials being used for management of hardware were only granted OPERATOR privileges, there is no way to inform Nova's baremetal driver or Ironic's ipmitool driver to use this non-default privilege level. These will issue ipmitool commands with no "-L" parameter, resulting in privilege errors, because the default ipmitool privlvl is ADMINISTRATOR.

This could be fixed by adding an optional field to store the privilege level.

[Haomeng,Wang (whaom)]

Possible IPMI privilege levels are:

1 Callback level
2 User level
3 Operator level
4 Administrator level
5 OEM Proprietary level

@Devananda, so should we define the level number into our node's driver_info for each node when node is creating/updating, or add ironic.conf configuration option to define such level on global?

@Haomeng,

I think this should be an optional member of node's driver_info, and the ipmi drivers should default to administrator.

    Supports OPERATOR priv level for ipmitool driver

    This could be fixed by adding an optional member of node's
    driver_info to store the privilege level. And add '-L' option for
    ipmitool command call.
