AMT is not supported with Ironic-Python-Agent

[John L. Villalovos]

Support needs to be added to Ironic so that AMT can be used with IPA

[Dmitry Tantsur (divius)]

Hi, could you clarify the AMT-is-not-supported bit? Does it fail or do we just need to wire it in somewhere?

[John L. Villalovos (happycamp)]

We need to wire it in.

[Michael Davies (mrda)]

Independent of *which* amt driver we use, we need to create a agent_amt driver that looks something like this:

https://github.com/devananda/ironic/blob/new-amt-driver/ironic/drivers/agent.py#L188-L202

and

https://github.com/devananda/ironic/blob/new-amt-driver/setup.cfg#L75

That way we can use IPA for deployment, while using the AMT for power.

I've registered https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ironic/+spec/agent-amt-driver since this is really feature work.

    Add agent_amt driver

    This combines the AgentDeploy deploy driver with the AMT power and
    management drivers, to allow the agent-based deploy mechanism on AMT
    hardware.

This issue was fixed in the openstack/ironic 4.3.0 release.
