# OPCP Core compatibility matrix

## Objective

**OPCP Core** provides bare metal provisioning through [OpenStack Ironic](https://docs.openstack.org/ironic/). Because this requires specific hardware support and validated firmware versions, not every OS image works out of the box — and firmware updates can break compatibility.

This guide is a **public compatibility matrix** listing platforms that have been fully qualified on OPCP Core. For each, it documents:

- Whether the platform is **available upon delivery** (provisioned directly by OVHcloud without a custom image).
- Which **Ironic features** are supported: software RAID, Active/Backup bonding, LACP (802.3ad).
- Whether **Neutron trunking** is available post-install.
- Whether **Secure Boot** is supported.
- Links to the relevant **image build and installation documentation**.

## Compatibility matrix

The table below lists platforms with status **Ready** — those that have been fully qualified on OPCP Core hardware.

:::info
The **"Available upon delivery"** column indicates whether OPCP Core can provision this OS on your bare metal nodes at delivery time, without requiring you to build a custom image first.

### Feature explanations

#### Ironic software RAID

Software RAID is configured by Ironic during bare metal provisioning. When enabled, the OS is deployed across multiple disks (typically RAID-1 for two-disk configurations), providing local storage redundancy without requiring a hardware RAID controller.

:::warning
Software RAID with Ironic requires GRUB to be built with `mdadm` modules. This must be taken into account when building a custom OS image.
:::

#### Ironic Active/Backup bonding

Ironic can configure Active/Backup network bonding during provisioning. This provides link redundancy: one NIC is active while the other stands by, and takes over automatically if the primary fails. No configuration is required on the upstream switch.

#### Ironic LACP (802.3ad)

LACP bonding (IEEE 802.3ad) aggregates two network interfaces into a single logical link, providing both redundancy and increased throughput. This mode requires the upstream switch to support and be configured for LACP.

For step-by-step instructions, see [How to setup LACP on a Node](/pt/guides/hosted-private-cloud/opcp/how-to-setup-lacp-on-node.md).

#### Neutron trunking

Neutron trunking allows a bare metal instance to carry multiple Neutron networks over a single physical port using VLAN tagging. It is configured post-installation through OpenStack Neutron, and not during the Ironic provisioning phase.

:::info
OpenStack does not configure VLAN trunking natively through cloud-init. Enabling trunking requires post-install configuration steps detailed in [How to setup trunk on a Node](/pt/guides/hosted-private-cloud/opcp/setup-trunk-on-node.md).
:::

#### Secure Boot

UEFI Secure Boot ensures that only signed bootloaders and kernels are executed during the boot sequence. Support depends on both the OS image and the hardware configuration. A `—` in the matrix means this feature has not yet been validated for that platform.
