Description : new way to provision/update systems
eDeploy is a new way to provision/update systems (physical or virtual) using
trees of files instead of packages or VM images.
.
Installation is done using these steps:
* Detect PCI hardware and setup network.
* Send the detected hardware config to the server.
* The server sends back a configuration script.
* Run the configuration script to setup IPMI, RAID, partitions and network.
* According to the defined role, rsync the tree on the newly created
partitions.
* Configure the grub2 boot loader and reboot the system.
.
Then the system will boot on the provisioned harddrive directly.
