Baremetal API

For details on how to use baremetal, see Using OpenStack Baremetal

The Baremetal Class

The baremetal high-level interface is available through the baremetal member of a Connection object. The baremetal member will only be added if the service is detected.

Node Operations

class openstack.baremetal.v1._proxy.Proxy(session, statsd_client=None, statsd_prefix=None, prometheus_counter=None, prometheus_histogram=None, influxdb_config=None, influxdb_client=None, *args, **kwargs)
nodes(details=False, **query)

Retrieve a generator of nodes.

Parameters
  • details – A boolean indicating whether the detailed information for every node should be returned.

  • query (dict) –

    Optional query parameters to be sent to restrict the nodes returned. Available parameters include:

    • associated: Only return those which are, or are not, associated with an instance_id.

    • conductor_group: Only return those in the specified conductor_group.

    • driver: Only return those with the specified driver.

    • fault: Only return those with the specified fault type.

    • fields: A list containing one or more fields to be returned in the response. This may lead to some performance gain because other fields of the resource are not refreshed.

    • instance_id: Only return the node with this specific instance UUID or an empty set if not found.

    • is_maintenance: Only return those with maintenance set to True or False.

    • limit: Requests at most the specified number of nodes be returned from the query.

    • marker: Specifies the ID of the last-seen node. Use the limit parameter to make an initial limited request and use the ID of the last-seen node from the response as the marker value in a subsequent limited request.

    • provision_state: Only return those nodes with the specified provision_state.

    • resource_class: Only return those with the specified resource_class.

    • sort_dir: Sorts the response by the requested sort direction. A valid value is asc (ascending) or desc (descending). Default is asc. You can specify multiple pairs of sort key and sort direction query parameters. If you omit the sort direction in a pair, the API uses the natural sorting direction of the server attribute that is provided as the sort_key.

    • sort_key: Sorts the response by the this attribute value. Default is id. You can specify multiple pairs of sort key and sort direction query parameters. If you omit the sort direction in a pair, the API uses the natural sorting direction of the server attribute that is provided as the sort_key.

Returns

A generator of Node

create_node(**attrs)

Create a new node from attributes.

Parameters

attrs (dict) – Keyword arguments that will be used to create a Node.

Returns

Return type

Node.

find_node(name_or_id, ignore_missing=True)

Find a single node.

Parameters
  • name_or_id (str) – The name or ID of a node.

  • ignore_missing (bool) – When set to False, an exception of ResourceNotFound will be raised when the node does not exist. When set to True`, None will be returned when attempting to find a nonexistent node.

get_node(node, fields=None)

Get a specific node.

Parameters
  • node – The value can be the name or ID of a node or a Node instance.

Parameters
  • node – The value can be the name or ID of a node or a Node instance.

  • retry_on_conflict (bool) – Whether to retry HTTP CONFLICT error. Most of the time it can be retried, since it is caused by the node being locked. However, when setting instance_id, this is a normal code and should not be retried.

  • attrs (dict) – The attributes to update on the node represented by the node parameter.

Returns

The updated node.

Return type

Node

patch_node(node, patch, reset_interfaces=None, retry_on_conflict=True)

  • reset_interfaces (bool) – whether to reset the node hardware interfaces to their defaults. This works only when changing drivers. Added in API microversion 1.45.

  • retry_on_conflict (bool) – Whether to retry HTTP CONFLICT error. Most of the time it can be retried, since it is caused by the node being locked. However, when setting instance_id, this is a normal code and should not be retried.

See Update Node for details.

Return type

Node

set_node_provision_state(node, target, config_drive=None, clean_steps=None, rescue_password=None, wait=False, timeout=None)

Run an action modifying node’s provision state.

This call is asynchronous, it will return success as soon as the Bare Metal service acknowledges the request.

Parameters
  • node – The value can be the name or ID of a node or a Node instance.

  • target – Provisioning action, e.g. active, provide. See the Bare Metal service documentation for available actions.

  • config_drive – Config drive to pass to the node, only valid for active` and ``rebuild targets. You can use functions from openstack.baremetal.configdrive to build it.

  • clean_steps – Clean steps to execute, only valid for clean target.

  • rescue_password – Password for the rescue operation, only valid for rescue target.

  • wait – Whether to wait for the node to get into the expected state. The expected state is determined from a combination of the current provision state and target.

  • timeout – If wait is set to True, specifies how much (in seconds) to wait for the expected state to be reached. The value of None (the default) means no client-side timeout.

Returns

The updated Node

Raises

ValueError if config_drive, clean_steps or rescue_password are provided with an invalid target.

wait_for_nodes_provision_state(nodes, expected_state, timeout=None, abort_on_failed_state=True, fail=True)

Wait for the nodes to reach the expected state.

Parameters
  • nodes – List of nodes - name, ID or Node instance.

  • expected_state – The expected provisioning state to reach.

  • timeout – If wait is set to True, specifies how much (in seconds) to wait for the expected state to be reached. The value of None (the default) means no client-side timeout.

  • abort_on_failed_state – If True (the default), abort waiting if any node reaches a failure state which does not match the expected one. Note that the failure state for enroll -> manageable transition is enroll again.

  • fail – If set to False this call will not raise on timeouts and provisioning failures.

Returns

If fail is True (the default), the list of Node instances that reached the requested state. If fail is False, a WaitResult named tuple.

Raises

ResourceFailure if a node reaches an error state and abort_on_failed_state is True.

Raises

ResourceTimeout on timeout.

set_node_power_state(node, target)

Run an action modifying node’s power state.

This call is asynchronous, it will return success as soon as the Bare Metal service acknowledges the request.

Parameters
  • node – The value can be the name or ID of a node or a Node instance.

  • target – Target power state, e.g. “rebooting”, “power on”. See the Bare Metal service documentation for available actions.

wait_for_node_reservation(node, timeout=None)

Wait for a lock on the node to be released.

Bare metal nodes in ironic have a reservation lock that is used to represent that a conductor has locked the node while performing some sort of action, such as changing configuration as a result of a machine state change.

This lock can occur during power syncronization, and prevents updates to objects attached to the node, such as ports.

Note that nothing prevents a conductor from acquiring the lock again after this call returns, so it should be treated as best effort.

Returns immediately if there is no reservation on the node.

Parameters
  • node – The value can be the name or ID of a node or a Node instance.

  • timeout – How much (in seconds) to wait for the lock to be released. The value of None (the default) means no timeout.

Returns

The updated Node
