Hi All,

I am working on a bug [1] in Ironic which talks exposing the state of conductor service running in OpenStack environment.
There are two ways to do this:

1) create a new API endpoint e.g. 'v1/service' that can report which conductor is managing given node. Additionally it can also report aliveness of all Ironic conductors and on which hosts they are running (similar to nova service-list)

2) expose conductor_affinity in node-show (but resolve it to hostname first).

Option #2 is probably quicker to implement, but option #1 has more benefits for operators.

So I would like to know from the OpenStack operators and project teams who has this API:

1. What are the other use-case of this API?
2. Which option is better to implement? Is it worth adding a new API endpoint for the purpose?
2. Also why this API only expose the state of RPC servers and not the API server in the environment?
