While no steins nor speakers were harmed during + the development of this release, we might have suffered some hearing + damage after we learned that we could increase the volume well + past eleven! + + Notable items include: + + * Increased parallelism of power synchronization to improve overall + conductor efficiency. + * API fields to support node ``description`` and ``owner`` values. + * HPE iLO ``ilo5`` and Huawei ``ibmc`` hardware types. + * Allocations API interface to enable operators to find and select + bare metal nodes for deployment. + * JSON-RPC can now be used for ``ironic-api`` to ``ironic-conductor`` + communication as opposed to using an AMQP messaging provider. + * Support for customizable PXE templates and streamlined deployment + sequences. + * Initial support for the definition of "deployment templates" to + enable operators to define and match customized deployment sequences. + * Initial work for supporting SmartNIC configuration is included, + however the Networking Service changes required are not anticipated + until sometime during the Train development cycle. + * And numerous bug fixes, including ones for IPv6 and IPMI. + + This release includes the changes in ironic's ``12.0.0`` release which + was also released during the Stein development cycle and includes a number + of improvements for Bare Metal infrastructure operators. More about our + earlier stein release can be found in our + `release notes <https://docs.openstack.org/releasenotes/ironic/stein.html#relnotes-12-0-0>`_. |
