Provisioning to Disk with Warewulf v4
DescriptionWarewulf v4, the current generation of the popular cluster provisioning system, was significnatly simpler than its predecessor by supporting only a single-stage, provision-to-memory pattern. While this simplification has many benefits, users of the platform, particularly those coming from Warewulf 3, continue to request "stateful" provisioning support. The Warewulf development community, however, is protective of the simplicity of the current platform, and wants to introduce "diskful" provisioning features without sacrificing the simplicity and benefits of the stateless provisioning paradigm.
Here we present recent additions to Warewulf's ability to provision local storage and to provision a node image to that local storage. We also present a proposed roadmap for the future of disk provisioning in Warewulf as a prompt for further community feedback.
