Important notes
===============

This is the OPNFV Brahmaputra SR2 release that implements the deploy stage of the OPNFV CI pipeline via Apex.

Apex is based on RDO Manager. More information at http://rdoproject.org

Carefully follow the installation-instructions which guide a user on how to deploy OPNFV using Apex installer.

Summary
=======

Brahmaputra release with the Apex deployment toolchain will establish an OPNFV target system
on a Pharos compliant lab infrastructure.  The current definition of an OPNFV target system
is and OpenStack Liberty combined with OpenDaylight Beryllium.  The system is deployed with
OpenStack High Availability (HA) for most OpenStack services.  OpenDaylight is deployed in
non-HA form as HA support is not availble for OpenDaylight at the time of the Brahmaputra
release.  Ceph storage is used as Cinder backend, and is the only supported storage for
Brahmaputra. Ceph is setup as 3 OSDs and 3 Monitors, one OSD+Mon per Controller node.

- Documentation is built by Jenkins
- .iso image is built by Jenkins
- .rpm packages are built by Jenkins
- Jenkins deploys a Brahmaputra release with the Apex deployment toolchain baremetal,
  which includes 3 control+network nodes, and 2 compute nodes.
