My patch review is here: https://review.openstack.org/#/c/311278/6/ironic/drivers/modules/ssh.py One of the biggest complaints from the reviewers stands as follows: ------------------- Line 160: %s' % vbox_headless_str, headless option is available only for startvm. Am I missing something http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/5.0.0/UserManual.pdf ------------------- What is the stability of the '--type headless' arg to controvm and can you please make it documented? Right now, with that patch. I am able to spawn a 16-node tripleo environement using VirtualBox as the Hypervisor and Linux as the host OS. Thank you, Regards, Vincent S.
