(c) Open Platform for NFV Project, Inc. and its contributors ======== Abstract ======== This document compiles the release notes for the Danube release of OPNFV when using Fuel as a deployment tool with an AArch64 (only) target node pool. =============== Important Notes =============== These notes provides release information for the use of Fuel as deployment tool for the AArch64 Danube release of OPNFV. The goal of the AArch64 Danube release and this Fuel-based deployment process is to establish a lab ready platform accelerating further development of the OPNFV on AArch64 infrastructure. Due to early docker and nodejs support on AArch64, we will still use an x86_64 Fuel Master to build and deploy an AArch64 target pool. Although not currently supported, mixing x86_64 and AArch64 architectures inside the target pool will be possible later. Carefully follow the installation-instructions provided in *Reference 13*. ======= Summary ======= For AArch64 Danube, the typical use of Fuel as an OpenStack installer is supplemented with OPNFV unique components such as: - `OpenDaylight `_ - `Open vSwitch for NFV `_ - `BGPVPN `_ - `Tacker `_ - `Service Function Chaining `_ - `SDN distributed routing and VPN `_ The following OPNFV plugins are not yet ported for AArch64: - `NFV Hypervisors-KVM `_ - `VSPERF `_ - `Promise `_ - `Parser `_ - `Doctor `_ As well as OPNFV-unique configurations of the Hardware and Software stack.
