REST API Version History

1.31 (Ocata)

Added the following fields to the node object, to allow getting and setting interfaces for a dynamic driver:

  • boot_interface
  • console_interface
  • deploy_interface
  • inspect_interface
  • management_interface
  • power_interface
  • raid_interface
  • vendor_interface

1.30 (Ocata)

Added dynamic driver APIs.

  • GET /v1/drivers now accepts a type parameter (optional, one of classic or dynamic), to limit the result to only classic drivers or dynamic drivers (hardware types). Without this parameter, both classic and dynamic drivers are returned.

  • GET /v1/drivers now accepts a detail parameter (optional, one of True or False), to show all fields for a driver. Defaults to False.

  • GET /v1/drivers now returns an additional type field to show if the driver is classic or dynamic.

  • GET /v1/drivers/<name> now returns an additional type field to show if the driver is classic or dynamic.

  • GET /v1/drivers/<name> now returns additional fields that are null for classic drivers, and set as following for dynamic drivers:

    • The value of the default_<interface-type>_interface is the entrypoint name of the calculated default interface for that type:

      • default_boot_interface
      • default_console_interface
      • default_deploy_interface
      • default_inspect_interface
      • default_management_interface
      • default_network_interface
      • default_power_interface
      • default_raid_interface
      • default_vendor_interface

    • The value of the enabled_<interface-type>_interfaces is a list of entrypoint names of the enabled interfaces for that type:

      • enabled_boot_interfaces
      • enabled_console_interfaces
      • enabled_deploy_interfaces
      • enabled_inspect_interfaces
      • enabled_management_interfaces
      • enabled_network_interfaces
      • enabled_power_interfaces
      • enabled_raid_interfaces
      • enabled_vendor_interfaces

1.29 (Ocata)

Add a new management API to support inject NMI, ‘PUT /v1/nodes/(node_ident)/management/inject_nmi’.

1.28 (Ocata)

Add ‘/v1/nodes/<node identifier>/vifs’ endpoint for attach, detach and list of VIFs.

1.27 (Ocata)

Add soft rebooting and soft power off as possible values for the target field of the power state change payload, and also add timeout field to it.

1.26 (Ocata)

Add portgroup mode and properties fields.

1.25 (Ocata)

Add possibility to unset chassis_uuid from a node.

1.24 (Ocata)

Added new endpoints ‘/v1/nodes/<node>/portgroups’ and ‘/v1/portgroups/<portgroup>/ports’. Added new field port.portgroup_uuid.

1.23 (Ocata)

Added ‘/v1/portgroups/ endpoint.

1.22 (Newton, 6.1.0)

Added endpoints for deployment ramdisks.

1.21 (Newton, 6.1.0)

Add node resource_class field.

1.20 (Newton, 6.1.0)

Add node network_interface field.

1.19 (Newton, 6.1.0)

Add local_link_connection and pxe_enabled fields to the port object.

1.18 (Newton, 6.1.0)

Add internal_info readonly field to the port object, that will be used by ironic to store internal port-related information.

1.17 (Newton, 6.0.0)

Addition of provision_state verb adopt which allows an operator to move a node from manageable state to active state without performing a deployment operation on the node. This is intended for nodes that have already been deployed by external means.

1.16 (Mitaka, 5.0.0)

Add ability to filter nodes by driver.

1.15 (Mitaka, 5.0.0)

Add ability to do manual cleaning when a node is in the manageable provision state via PUT v1/nodes/<identifier>/states/provision, target:clean, clean_steps:[…].

1.14 (Liberty, 4.2.0)

Make the following endpoints discoverable via Ironic API:

  • ‘/v1/nodes/<UUID or logical name>/states’
  • ‘/v1/drivers/<driver name>/properties’

1.13 (Liberty, 4.2.0)

Add a new verb abort to the API used to abort nodes in CLEANWAIT state.

1.12 (Liberty, 4.2.0)

This API version adds the following abilities:

  • Get/set node.target_raid_config and to get node.raid_config.
  • Retrieve the logical disk properties for the driver.

1.11 (Liberty, 4.0.0, breaking change)

Newly registered nodes begin in the enroll provision state by default, instead of available. To get them to the available state, the manage action must first be run to verify basic hardware control. On success the node moves to manageable provision state. Then the provide action must be run. Automated cleaning of the node is done and the node is made available.

1.10 (Liberty, 4.0.0)

Logical node names support all RFC 3986 unreserved characters. Previously only valid fully qualified domain names could be used.

1.9 (Liberty, 4.0.0)

Add ability to filter nodes by provision state.

1.8 (Liberty, 4.0.0)

Add ability to return a subset of resource fields.

1.7 (Liberty, 4.0.0)

Add node clean_step field.

1.6 (Kilo)

Add Hardware Inspection process: introduce inspecting and inspectfail provision states, and inspect action that can be used when a node is in manageable provision state.

1.5 (Kilo)

Add logical node names that can be used to address a node in addition to the node UUID. Name is expected to be a valid fully qualified domain name in this version of API.

1.4 (Kilo)

Add manageable state and manage transition, which can be used to move a node to manageable state from available. The node cannot be deployed in manageable state. This change is mostly a preparation for future inspection work and introduction of enroll provision state.

1.3 (Kilo)

Add node driver_internal_info field.

1.2 (Kilo, breaking change)

Renamed NOSTATE (None in Python, null in JSON) node state to available. This is needed to reduce confusion around None state, especially when future additions to the state machine land.

1.1 (Kilo)

This was the initial version when API versioning was introduced. Includes the following changes from Kilo release cycle:

  • Add node maintenance_reason field and an API endpoint to set/unset the node maintenance mode.
  • Add sync and async support for vendor passthru methods.
  • Vendor passthru endpoints support different HTTP methods, not only POST.
  • Make vendor methods discoverable via the Ironic API.
  • Add logic to store the config drive passed by Nova.

This has been the minimum supported version since versioning was introduced.

1.0 (Juno)

This version denotes Juno API and was never explicitly supported, as API versioning was not implemented in Juno, and 1.1 became the minimum supported version in Kilo.
