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

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

Apex is based on RDO's Triple-O installation tool chain.
More information at http://rdoproject.org

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

Summary
=======

Colorado 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 Colorado release.  Ceph
storage is used as Cinder backend, and is the only supported storage for
Colorado. 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 Colorado release with the Apex deployment toolchain
  baremetal, which includes 3 control+network nodes, and 2 compute nodes.
