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

For the first OPNFV release (Arno), these notes introduce use of
`OpenStack Fuel <https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Fuel>` for the
deployment stage of the OPNFV continuous integration (CI) pipeline.
The goal of the Arno release and this Fuel-based deployment process is
to establish a foundational platform accelerating further development
of the OPNFV infrastructure.


Carefully follow the installation-instructions and pay special
attention to the pre-deploy script that needs to be run before
deployment is started.


Summary
=======

For Arno SR1, the typical use of Fuel as an OpenStack installer is
supplemented with OPNFV unique components such as `OpenDaylight
<http://www.opendaylight.org/software>`_ version Helium as well as
OPNFV-unique configurations.


This Arno artefact provides Fuel as the deployment stage tool in the
OPNFV CI pipeline including:


- Documentation built by Jenkins
  - this document (release notes)
  - installation instructions
  - build-instructions
- The Arno Fuel installer image (.iso) built by Jenkins
- Automated deployment of Arno with running on bare metal or a nested
  hypervisor environment (KVM)
- Automated validation of the Arno deployment
