Ready-state configuration

Note

Ready-state configuration currently works only with Dell DRAC machines.

Ready-state configuration can be used to prepare bare-metal resources for deployment. It includes BIOS configuration based on a predefined profile.

Define the target BIOS configuration

To define a BIOS setting, list the name of the setting and its target value for each profile:

{
    "compute" :{
        "bios_settings": {"ProcVirtualization": "Enabled"}
    }
}

Trigger the ready-state configuration

Make sure the nodes have profiles assigned as described in Advanced Profile Matching. Create a JSON file with the target ready-state configuration for each profile. Then trigger the configuration:

openstack baremetal configure ready state ready-state.json
