[one-users] Provisioning and theforeman

[Ruben S. Montero]

Hi

Yes bare metal provisioning is for sure in our radar. There have been some
discussions in the past about it [1, 2]. However, work in this is not in
our short-term roadmap.

Related to this issue, and maybe a first step, is the ability to audit  a
host, (is KVM properly configured?, are the datastores mounted and
accessible?...) See for example [3,4]. This would be very useful for
OpenNebula users and will drive the bare metal provisioning process.

Thanks for the feedback!

Ruben
