Bug 1400945

Summary: When viewing instances in the Overcloud, if an instance is a Baremetal instance, the URL to the Console should point to http://<IPMI_IP> of the physical node hosting the instance.

Description Darin Sorrentino 2016-12-02 11:35:26 UTC 
Description of problem:

This is a RFE for both CloudForms and OpenStack Horizon.  Not sure if we need two BZ's to address the issue since it exists in both interfaces.

From the OpenStack Dashboard in Horizon, there is no differentiation between if an instance is a virtual machine running as a compute resource or if the instance is a baremetal machine deployed by Ironic.  Therefore, the Console URL for the instance, regardless of type (virtual/baremetal) is statically generated using the instance ID and novnc/spice/etc as an access method.  This does not work for baremetal machines as the only way to access console on them is through their management interface.

This issue is propagated up into CloudForms.  I don't know if the Console link in CloudForms is pulled from the Console link of Horizon or if it is generated via code within CloudForms.

Either way, this is an issue that needs to be addressed in both CloudForms and the OpenStack Horizon Dashboard.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
All/Current

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start up Red Hat OpenStack with Ironic running in the Overcloud
2. Deploy a baremetal instance in the Overcloud
3. Click on the Instance in CloudForms/Horizon, click on the Console URL link and it will open a window and fail

Actual results:

Console connectivity fails.

Expected results:

The Window should open to the iDrac/ILO etc using the IPMI interface of the node so the user can actually log in and get console of the baremetal node.

Darin, is it possible to split this BZ into two, one for Horizon and one for CloudForms?  I suspect different teams will be working on each.
