https://review.openstack.org/#/c/429770/
- Missing test coverage (all)
- portgroups and attach/detach tempest tests:
https://review.openstack.org/382476
- local boot with partition images: TODO
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ironic/+bug/1531149
- adoption: https://review.openstack.org/#/c/344975/
- should probably be changed to use standalone tests

Generic boot-from-volume (TheJulia, dtantsur)
---------------------------------------------
- specs and blueprints:
-
http://specs.openstack.org/openstack/ironic-specs/specs/approved/volume-connection-information.html

-
http://specs.openstack.org/openstack/ironic-specs/specs/approved/boot-from-volume-reference-drivers.html
- code: https://review.openstack.org/#/q/topic:bug/1559691
- https://blueprints.launchpad.net/nova/+spec/ironic-boot-from-volume
- code:
https://review.openstack.org/#/q/topic:bp/ironic-boot-from-volume
- status as of most recent weekly meeting:
- hshiina is looking in Nova side changes and is attempting to obtain
clarity on some of the issues that tenant network separation introduced into
the deployment workflow.
- Patch/note tracking etherpad: https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/Ironic-BFV
Ironic Patches:
https://review.openstack.org/#/c/413324 - iPXE template. MERGED
https://review.openstack.org/#/c/454243/ - Skip deployment if BFV.
MERGED
https://review.openstack.org/#/c/479142 - Re-align conductor methods
for Rest API for volume interfaces prior to api landing - Needs reviews
https://review.openstack.org/#/c/214586/ - Volume Connection
Information Rest API Change - Needs reviews
https://review.openstack.org/#/c/463930/ - CRUD notification
updates for volume objects. MERGED

Rolling upgrades and grenade-partial (rloo, jlvillal)
-----------------------------------------------------
- spec approved; code patches:
https://review.openstack.org/#/q/topic:bug/1526283
- status as of most recent weekly meeting:
- next patches ready for reviews:
- 'Modifications for rolling upgrades':
https://review.openstack.org/#/c/476779/
- 'Add new dbsync command with first online data migration':
https://review.openstack.org/#/c/408556/
- to address restarting services after unpinning, spec ready for reviews:
'SIGHUP restarts services with updated configs':
https://review.openstack.org/474309
- Testing work: done as per spec, but rloo wants to ask vasyl whether we
can improve. grenade test will do upgrade so we have old API sending requests
to old and/or new conductor, but rloo doesn't think there is anything to
control -which- conductor handles the request, so what if old conductor handles
all the requests?
Python 3.5 compatibility (Nisha, Ankit)
---------------------------------------
- Topic:
https://review.openstack.org/#/q/topic:goal-python35+NOT+project:openstack/governance+NOT+project:openstack/releases
- this include all projects, not only ironic
- please tag all reviews with topic "goal-python35"
other patches for experimental gates are not merging as core reviewers are
asking to add the python3 builder in running gates instead of duplicating them
in project--config project.. https://review.openstack.org/462487,
https://review.openstack.org/462695, https://review.openstack.org/462701 and
https://review.openstack.org/462706
- Two ironic patches in review: https://review.openstack.org/473888 and
https://review.openstack.org/#/c/473913/.
Deploying with Apache and WSGI in CI (vsaienk0)
-----------------------------------------------
- ironic part seems finished (needs double-checking)
- do we have install-guide bits on how to do it?
- inspector is TODO and depends on
https://review.openstack.org/#/q/topic:bg/1525218
Driver composition (dtantsur)

Feature parity between two CLIs (rloo, dtantsur)

both ironic & OSC CLI) until we deprecate ironic CLI
