    - Two more patches to go to add support for deploying UEFI images with Ironic in devstack: 1) https://review.openstack.org/#/c/414604/ (DevStack) 2) https://review.openstack.org/#/c/374988/ BOTH MERGED
    - focus (lucasagomes) is to get UEFI testing in gate. More patches needed for this.

Rolling upgrades and grenade-partial (rloo, jlvillal)
=====================================================
* trello: https://trello.com/c/GAlhSzLm/2-rolling-upgrades-and-grenade-with-multi-node
- status as of most recent weekly meeting:
- leaning towards moving this to Pike.
    - patches need reviews: https://review.openstack.org/#/q/topic:bug/1526283.
    - concerns about https://review.openstack.org/#/c/420728/ (Add compatibility with Newton when creating a node)
    - had irc discussion about status: http://eavesdrop.openstack.org/irclogs/%23openstack-ironic/%23openstack-ironic.2017-01-23.log.html#t2017-01-23T16:17:41
    - Testing work:
        - Great progress this last week! Able to fix issue that had blocked us for several weeks in the multi-tenant grenade job!
        - Tempest smoke is now working for the multi-tenant grenade job during the initial pre-grenade run.
        - The grenade portion passes for the multi-tenant grenade job
            - http://logs.openstack.org/49/422149/5/experimental/gate-grenade-dsvm-ironic-multitenant-ubuntu-xenial-nv/74c9ed9/logs/grenade.sh.summary.txt.gz
        - The final tempest "smoke" test is failing after the grenade run in the multi-tenant grenade job.
            - http://logs.openstack.org/49/422149/5/experimental/gate-grenade-dsvm-ironic-multitenant-ubuntu-xenial-nv/74c9ed9/console.html
        - Testing being done in: https://review.openstack.org/#/c/422149/
        - This needs multi-node testing, and multi-node has a very low probability of working in Ocata

Generic boot-from-volume (TheJulia)
===================================
* trello: https://trello.com/c/UttNjDB7/13-generic-boot-from-volume
- status as of most recent weekly meeting:
    - API side changes for volume connector information has a procedural -2 until we can begin making use of the data in the conductor, but should stil be reviewed
        - https://review.openstack.org/#/c/214586/
        - This change has been rebased on top of the iPXE template update revision to support cinder/iscsi booting.
    - Boot from volume/storage cinder interface is up for review
        - Last patch set for cinder common client interface was reverted in a rebase.  TheJulia expects to address this Monday afternoon.
        - https://review.openstack.org/#/q/status:open+project:openstack/ironic+branch:master+topic:bug/1559691
    - Original volume connection information client patches
        - They need OSC support added into the revisions.
        - These changes should be expected to land once Pike opens.
