Open Stack

Greetings!

I believe you need two patches, one in ironic and one in sushy.

Sushy:
https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/sushy/+/832860

Ironic:
https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/ironic/+/820588

I think it is variation, and the comment about working after you restart
the conductor is the big signal to me. I’m on a phone on a bad data
connection, if you email me on Monday I can see what versions the fixes
would be in.

For the record, it is a session cache issue, the bug was that the service
didn’t quite know what to do when auth fails.
