Previously disk labels would not be populated if not explicitly set by an API user, which lead to a dangerous possible case, which sometimes could work, but was ultimately wrong to setup a UEFI booting machine with a BIOS MBR partition table. Not all systems support this, but UEFI systems are supposed to support GPT partition tables. We now fallback if no explicit override is set and assume GPT if the machine is set to UEFI mode.

Team and repository tags
Overview
Ironic consists of an API and plug-ins for managing and provisioning physical machines in a security-aware and fault-tolerant manner. It can be used with nova as a hypervisor driver, or standalone service using bifrost. By default, it will use PXE and IPMI to interact with bare metal machines. Ironic also supports vendor-specific plug-ins which may implement additional functionality.
