Description Lucy Bopf 2017-04-03 02:01:44 UTC 
Serial console support for bare metal machines deployed by Bare Metal Provisioning (Ironic) has now been implemented using "socat", which provides nova-compatible serial console capability.

Changing internal whiteboard to reflect the value in the RFE that this is documenting (1347470 is DFG:compute).  Also changing target release to OSP 11.  If this is in our 11 program it needs to turn up in our 11 program BZ list.
Comment 3 Lucy Bopf 2017-10-05 07:36:00 UTC 
Assigning to Mikey for review.
Comment 11 Dan Macpherson 2019-08-21 06:04:37 UTC 
Hi Ramon,

This looks like the socat package is pre-installed on overcloud-full and ipmitool-socat is enabled by default on the overcloud for OSP13:

  IronicEnabledConsoleInterfaces:
    default: ['ipmitool-socat', 'no-console']
    description: Enabled console interface implementations. Each hardware
                 type must have at least one valid implementation enabled.
    type: comma_delimited_list

Is this just a case of documenting the "openstack baremetal node" commands?
