Document compute resources and their provisioning capabilities #2667

Open ekohl opened 10 months ago

ekohl commented 10 months ago

Every Foreman compute resource has a list of capabilities. 2 are special, and they're build and image. These can be found in the code.

So there's:

Build is essentially the bare metal provisioning method (PXE, HTTPBoot, etc). Image means booting up an image and then customizing it (like with cloud-init).

There may be more compute resource plugins, but the method is always the same.

Another Plugin is Proxmox using build and image.
