Work in Process Items
These items are under active development, but cannot be confirmed for delivery in this release. Please consult with RackN if items below are mission critical for your operation.
Out of Band Machine Audit capabilities¶
Using Digital Rebar Orchestration and Work Order capabilities, operators will be able to perform comprehensive reviews of machine assets. This enables Enterprise to perform a comprehensive audit of machines even if they were not previously managed by Digital Rebar. This includes:
- Leveraging Worker sets
- Enabling Batch Environments and Batch Blueprints
- Hardware Redfish Audit Blueprint
- Audit Views / Reports
"Just run my Plan" Terraform and Ansible Runners¶
Streamlines existing Ansible and Terraform processes to allow users to run plans without first modifying them to comply with Digital Rebar cluster requirements. This allows operators to quickly import working Terraform plans to take advantage of Digital Rebar TF state store, orchestration and tracking without having to decompose the plan into Digital Rebar templates. This streamlines initial use cases and provides a path for operators to leverage Digital Rebar broker and cluster abstractions.
Powershell join-up¶
Create a Windows version of the Digital Rebar join-up script in addition to the existing Linux and ESXi version. This allows operators to add existing Windows systems into Digital Rebar without having to go through a Linux-based discovery.
