Lucas,
     That's because I added a subject when responded. :-)

There are lots of configuration management agents already out there (chef? 
puppet? salt? ansible? ... the list is pretty long these days...) which 
you can bake into the images that you deploy with Ironic, but I'd like to 
be clear that, in my opinion, Ironic's responsibility ends where the host 
OS begins. Ironic is a bare metal provisioning service, not a 
configuration management service.

What you're suggesting is similar to saying, "we want to run an agent in 
every KVM VM in our cloud," except most customers would clearly object to 
this. The only difference here is that you (and tripleo) are the deployer 
*and* the user of Ironic; that's a special case, but not the only use case 
which Ironic is servicing.


+1 (already agreed with something similar in another thread[1], seems that 
this discussion is splitted in 2 threads)
