Spec is here: https://review.openstack.org/184653

[Bruno Cornec (bruno-cornec)]

Now that we have a python-redfish library which has reached version 0.3 and is usable in a PoC context, we would like to come back to adding redfish support in Ironic

[Bruno Cornec (bruno-cornec)]

spec submitted for review. We should be able to talk about it during the upcoming OpenStack Summit.

    Add redfish driver

    This patch is adding a redfish driver based on the sushy library. This
    is just a basic driver that currently supports:

    * Power: Hard power on/off/reboot, soft power off/reboot
    * Management: Setting the boot device (PXE, disk, cd-rom and bios)
                  and its frequency (persistent or not)
    * Management: NMI Injection
    * SSL authentication

    Unittest coverage for the redfish modules is now in 100%, let's try to
    keep it this way (-:

    Documentation and DevStack updates will be done on subsequent patches.
