The system is left in state BASE(i) and handed over to the second phase. +* **OPNFV-INSTALLATION and MAINTENANCE:** Installation of OPNFV specific modules, maintenance of the overall OPNFV installation + * the system state for this second phase is called OPNFV(x) - where x is determined by a particular OPNFV release item. + * install deltas to state BASE(i) to reach the desired state OPNFV(x). Deltas would be defined as a set of scripts/manifests. Given that the state BASE(i) differs by installer used, the scripts could also be different. That said, it is a clear objective to make these scripts as generic and independent from the installer used as possible. + * maintain the system in state OPNFV(x) + * decouple device configuration from orchestration; allow for different tool chains to be used for device configuration and orchestration. I.e. rather than couple device config and orchestration with a single tool such as puppet in master-agent mode, enable a single tool to be focused on config (e.g. puppet in master-less mode) and another one for orchestration (e.g. Ansible/Salt driving upgrade of components, download of particular manifests to the nodes etc. + -- cgit 1.2.3-korg
