Monty Taylor bb8b4bf5a5 Swap human-facing links to use opendev.org

While we should not start using this for cloning things in the gate yet,
the opendev.org links provide for a nicer browsing experience already
even though the service is in beta. Go ahead and swap our browsing
links.

While in there, remove some masakari references to github links to the
source code. Masakari now publishes api docs to developer.openstack.org
so there is no need to point people to source code for api docs.

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.

../examples/baremetal/provisioning.py

Full example: baremetal provisioning

Provide Node

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