+deployment with no SDN controller and performance options enabled.

+
+============
+Introduction
+============
+
+This scenario is used primarily to demonstrate the performance settings and
+capabilities in Apex. This scenario will  deploy a Newton OpenStack
+deployment without any NFV features or SDN controller enabled.
+
+Scenario components and composition
+===================================
+
+This scenario is composed of common OpenStack services enabled by default,
+including Nova, Neutron, Glance, Cinder, Keystone, Horizon.  Optionally and
+by default, Tacker and Congress services are also enabled.  Ceph is used as
+the backend storage to Cinder on all deployed nodes.
+
+All services are in HA, meaning that there are multiple cloned instances of
+each service, and they are balanced by HA Proxy using a Virtual IP Address
+per service.
+
+The main purpose of this scenario is to serve as an example to show how to
+set optional performance settings in an Apex deploy settings file.
+
+Scenario usage overview
+=======================
+
+The performance options listed in os-nosdn-performance-ha.yaml give an example
+of the different options a user can set in any deploy settings file.  Some
+of these performance options are actually required for other scenarios which
+rely on DPDK.  Options under the nova section like 'libvirtpin' allow a
+user to choose which core to pin nova instances to on the overcloud compute
+node.  Options under 'kernel' allow a user to set kernel specific arguments
+at boot, which include options like hugepages, isolcpus, enabling iommu, etc.
+
+
+Limitations, Issues and Workarounds
+===================================
+
+* `APEX-389 <https://jira.opnfv.org/browse/APEX-389>`_:
+   Compute kernel parameters are applied to all nodes
