^^^^^^


Upgrade Notes
*************

* iRMC hardware type deals with iPXE boot interface incompatibility.
  To iPXE boot with "ipxe" boot interface, *(1)* add "ipxe" to
  "enabled_boot_interfaces" in "ironic.conf", *(2)* set up tftp & http
  server following *Ironic document on iPXE boot configuration
  <https://docs.openstack.org/ironic/latest/install/configure-
  pxe.html>*, then *(3)* create/set baremetal node with "--boot-
  interface ipxe".


Bug Fixes
*********

* Fixes a deployment issue encountered during deployment, more
  precisely during the configdrive partition creation step. On some
  specific devices like NVMe drives, the created configdrive partition
  could not be correctly identified (required to dump data onto it
  afterward). https://storyboard.openstack.org/#!/story/2005764

* Fixes traceback on cleaning of nodes with the "redfish" hardware
  type if their BMC does not support BIOS settings.

* iRMC hardware type deals with iPXE boot interface incompatibility.
  From Stein, "[pxe]ipxe_enabled" option has been deprecated and will
  be removed in preference to "ipxe" boot interface in Train cycle.
  Till then, iRMC hardware type supports iPXE boot through
  "[pxe]ipxe_enabled" option. To cope with this incompatibility, iRMC
  hardware type supports "ipxe" boot interface.

* Fixes the duplication of the "ipxe" tag when using IPv6, which
  leads to the dhcp server possibly returning an incorrect response to
  the DHCPv6 client.
