Dmitry Tantsur 5e4420763a Add set_provision_state and wait_for_provision_state for baremetal Node

This change adds set_provision_state and wait_for_provision_state
to openstack.baremetal.v1.Node, as well as set_node_provision_state
to the bare metal Proxy. Also adds wait_for_nodes_provision_state,
which is similar to Node.wait_for_provision_state but handles several
nodes at the same time, which is important for bulk operations.

The cloud's node_set_provision_state was updated to use the new calls.
As a nice side effect, it now supports all provision states and actions
up to the Queens release, as well as does proper microversioning.

Some documentation was written for the bare metal proxy.

Raw Blame History

Using OpenStack Baremetal

Before working with the Bare Metal service, you'll need to create a connection to your OpenStack cloud by following the connect user guide. This will provide you with the conn variable used in the examples below.

Table of Contents

The primary resource of the Bare Metal service is the node.

CRUD operations

List Nodes

A node is a bare metal machine.

../examples/baremetal/list.py

Full example: baremetal resource list

Provisioning operations

Provisioning actions are the main way to manipulate the nodes. See Bare Metal service states documentation for details.

Manage and inspect Node

Managing a node in the enroll provision state validates the management (IPMI, Redfish, etc) credentials and moves the node to the manageable state. Managing a node in the available state moves it to the manageable state. In this state additional actions, such as configuring RAID or inspecting, are available.

Inspecting a node detects its properties by either talking to its BMC or by booting a special ramdisk.

Full example: baremetal provisioning

Provide Node

Providing a node in the manageable provision state makes it available for deployment.
