Hi Recently i've been helping some customers in the boot from ISCSI feature. So far everything was working, but we had a problem when booting the deployment image. It needed specifically a flag rd.iscsi.ibft=1 rd.iscsi.firmware=1 in the grub commands. But as the generated deployment image doesn't contain these flags, ISCSI was not booting properly. For other hardware setups, different flags may be needed. The solution was to manually execute a virt-customize on the deployment image to hardcode these parameters. I wonder if we can add some feature in Ironic to support it. We have discussed about kernel parameters several times. But at this time, it affects ISCSI booting. Not having a way in Ironic to customize these parameters forces to manual workarounds. So can we reconsider the proposal to add kernel parameters there? It could be a settable argument (driver_info/kernel_args), and then the IPA could set the parameters properly on the image. Or any other option is welcome. What are your thoughts there?
