Ansible 9 EOL is in May 2025. Yep, a couple of weeks to go. Using interpreter auto discovery (default) as ansible_python_interpreter behavior has changed causing mayhem, for example see https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/83476 Depends-On: Ie03307aac1dffc5cf397a2513c2c44d403a2d2b7 Change-Id: Ia939bb5da97981e1d5ce3e29056fed884f29fc45 Signed-off-by: Riccardo Pittau <elfosardo@gmail.com>
Bifrost
Bifrost (pronounced bye-frost) is a set of Ansible playbooks that automates the task of deploying a base image onto a set of known hardware using ironic. It provides modular utility for one-off operating system deployment with as few operational requirements as reasonably possible.
The mission of bifrost is to provide an easy path to deploy ironic in a stand-alone fashion, in order to help facilitate the deployment of infrastructure, while also being a configurable project that can consume other OpenStack components to allow users to easily customize the environment to fit their needs, and drive forward the stand-alone perspective.
Use cases include:
- Installation of ironic in standalone/noauth mode without other OpenStack components.
- Deployment of an operating system to a known pool of hardware as a batch operation.
- Testing and development of ironic in the standalone mode.
