Currently the latest RDO repo is installed on centos9 for the python-hardware package. This would not be appropriate in the following cases: * When repos are copied in from the host via DIB_YUM_REPO_CONF * When another element is responsible for setting up repos This change adds environment variable DIB_IPA_HARDWARE_RDO, which will only be set to `1` on centos9, when DIB_YUM_REPO_CONF isn't set, and when the user hasn't explicitly set DIB_IPA_HARDWARE_RDO. This retains the current default behaviour of just working, while giving flexibility for repos to be set up another way. Change-Id: I1cc0b9833baf642866e9762c6bae44360bffe20d

Ironic Python Agent (IPA) Extra Hardware
|
|
========================================
|
|
|
|
This element adds the `hardware <https://pypi.python.org/pypi/hardware>`_
|
|
python package to the Ironic Python Agent (IPA) ramdisk. It also installs
|
|
several package dependencies of the ``hardware`` module.
|
|
|
|
The ``hardware`` package provides improved hardware introspection capabilities
|
|
and supports benchmarking. This functionality may be enabled by adding the
|
|
``extra-hardware`` collector in the ``[DEFAULT] inspection_collectors`` option
|
|
or the ``ipa-inspection-collectors`` kernel command line argument.
|
|
|
|
The following environment variables may be set to configure the element when
|
|
doing a source-based installation:
|
|
|
|
* ``DIB_IPA_HARDWARE_PACKAGE`` the full ``hardware`` Python package descriptor
|
|
to use. If unset, ``DIB_IPA_HARDWARE_VERSION`` will be used.
|
|
* ``DIB_IPA_HARDWARE_VERSION`` the version of the ``hardware`` package to
|
|
install when ``DIB_IPA_HARDWARE_PACKAGE`` is unset. If unset, the latest
|
|
version will be installed.
|
|
* ``DIB_IPA_HARDWARE_RDO`` set to ``0`` to prevent the latest RDO package repositories
|
|
being installed on CentOS-9-Stream (ignored when ``DIB_YUM_REPO_CONF`` is set).
