============
iDRAC driver
============
Overview
========
iDRAC_ hardware is supported by the ``idrac`` hardware type. It is also
supported by the standard ``ipmi`` hardware type, though with a smaller
feature set.
.. TODO(dtantsur): supported hardware
Enabling
========
The ``idrac`` hardware type requires the ``python-dracclient`` library to be
installed, for example::
sudo pip install 'python-dracclient>=1.3.0,<2.0.0'
To enable the ``idrac`` hardware type, add the following to your
``/etc/ironic/ironic.conf``:
.. code-block:: ini
[DEFAULT]
enabled_hardware_types=idrac
enabled_management_interfaces=idrac
enabled_power_interfaces=idrac
To enable all optional features (inspection, RAID and vendor passthru), use
the following configuration:
.. code-block:: ini
[DEFAULT]
enabled_hardware_types=idrac
enabled_inspect_interfaces=idrac
enabled_management_interfaces=idrac
enabled_power_interfaces=idrac
enabled_raid_interfaces=idrac
enabled_vendor_interfaces=idrac
Enrolling
=========
The following command will enroll a bare metal node with the ``idrac``
hardware type::
openstack baremetal node create --driver idrac \
--driver-info drac_address=http://drac.host \
--driver-info drac_username=user \
--driver-info drac_password=pa$$w0rd
.. TODO(dtantsur): describe RAID support and inspection
Known Issues
============
Nodes go into maintenance mode
------------------------------
After some period of time, nodes managed by the ``idrac`` hardware type may go
into maintenance mode in Ironic. This issue can be worked around by changing
the Ironic power state poll interval to 70 seconds. See
``[conductor]sync_power_state_interval`` in ``/etc/ironic/ironic.conf``.
