Jay, We have our ARM servers fully managed by Ironic as well (via the Redfish driver), including auto-discovery, benchmarking, burn-in and provisioning. They are set up as hypervisors and we provision ARM VMs on them to our users. We do not use the upstream IPA image, but build our own with IPAB (on an ARM based runner). Cheers, Arne ________________________________________ From: Jay Faulkner <jay@gr-oss.io> Sent: Wednesday, 29 March 2023 20:39 To: OpenStack Discuss Subject: [ironic] ARM Support in CI: Call for vendors / contributors / interested parties Hi stackers, Ironic has published an experimental Ironic Python Agent image for ARM64 (https://tarballs.opendev.org/openstack/ironic-python-agent-builder/dib/files...) and discussed promoting this image to supported via CI testing. However, we have a problem: there are no Ironic developers with easy access to ARM hardware at the moment, and no Ironic developers with free time to commit to improving our support of ARM hardware. So we're putting out a call for help: - If you're a hardware vendor and want your ARM hardware supported? Please come talk to the Ironic community about setting up third-party-CI. - Are you an operator or contributor from a company invested in ARM bare metal? Please come join the Ironic community to help us build this support. Thanks, Jay Faulkner Ironic PTL
