Hi, thank you for you help !
I was asking about a platform on which to run a production workload managed
by Ironic.
Yes, there is a separate Nova driver specifically designed for managing
vmware.
But can we deploy a bare metal into VMWare ESXI?
Or can we use vmware driver and at the same time , use Libvert driver ?
Can we manage both bare metal and kvm (or ESXI or xen ) at the same time in
an openstack cluster  ?


*Best Regards!*
