I just submitted for the record: Abstract:
First, it starts with a DVD with an OS installer, then is a recipe to automate it. And then PXE booting from network which sometimes lead to discovering new bare-metal nodes. Some shops fully automate provisioning and the only action is to power on a server. We all have that. But what's next? Make it fast. Blazing fast. Do it virtualization-like or cloud-like experience with Foreman Discovery and the new image-deployment capabilities. Additional info: Bare-metal remains relevant with upcoming farms of ARM servers. We need to be ready to deploy dozens of bare-metal servers at once. I will show story of provisioning in a typical Foreman shop and then make a demo of bare-metal servers deploying OS using multicast image transfer. The image-deployment scenario is a working in progress (prototype that works), I would like to hear feedback on that and also collect ideas.
