This is an RFE/stub to discuss the viability of adding an additional argparse to quads-cli --define-cloud like --foreman or --boot-order foreman

e.g.

quads-cli --define-cloud cloud02 --boot-order foreman

This would achieve the following:

Pros

  • If specified ahead of time folks who want to reprovision don't need to use badfish to perform one time boot or any of the other one-time boot/PXE operations we support. This might save some amount of time for tenants.

  • If tenants want to reprovision often during their assignment this would save substantial time as there is no need to process temporal or permanent boot order re-arrangement.

  • Yet to be seen or unknown, future requirements might be able to leverage this.

Cons

  • It's hard to determine behavior of future assignments and sometimes they may pivot so this might not be all that useful
  • We've really not seen a need or demand for this but it doesn't mean it won't be helpful.
