+Introduction
+============
+
+.. In this section explain the purpose of the scenario and the
+ types of capabilities provided
+
+The purpose of os-nosdn-kvm-ha scenario testing is to test the
+High Availability deployment and configuration of OPNFV software suite
+with OpenStack and without SDN software. This OPNFV software suite
+includes OPNFV KVM4NFV latest software packages for Linux Kernel and
+QEMU patches for achieving low latency. High Availability feature is achieved
+by deploying OpenStack multi-node setup with 3 controllers and 2 computes nodes
+
+KVM4NFV packages will be installed on compute nodes as part of deployment.
+This scenario testcase deployment is happening on multi-node by using
+OPNFV Fuel deployer.
+
+Scenario Components and Composition
+===================================
+.. In this section describe the unique components that make up the scenario,
+.. what each component provides and why it has been included in order
+.. to communicate to the user the capabilities available in this scenario.
+
+This scenario deploys the High Availability OPNFV Cloud based on the
+configurations provided in ha_nfv-kvm_heat_ceilometer_scenario.yaml.
+This yaml file contains following configurations and is passed as an
+argument to deploy.py script
+
+* scenario.yaml:This configuration file defines translation between a
+ short deployment scenario name(os-nosdn-kvm-ha) and an actual deployment
+ scenario configuration file(ha_nfv-kvm_heat_ceilometer_scenario.yaml)
+
+* deployment-scenario-metadata:Contains the configuration metadata like
+ title,version,created,comment.
+
+* stack-extensions:Stack extentions are opnfv added value features in form
+ of a fuel-plugin.Plugins listed in stack extensions are enabled and
+ configured.
+
+* dea-override-config: Used to configure the HA mode,network segmentation
+ types and role to node assignments.These configurations overrides
+ corresponding keys in the dea_base.yaml and dea_pod_override.yaml.
+ These keys are used to deploy multiple nodes(3 controllers,2 computes)
+ as mention below.
+
+ * **Node 1**: This node has MongoDB and Controller roles. The controller
+ node runs the Identity service, Image Service, management portions of
+ Compute and Networking, Networking plug-in and the dashboard. The
+ Telemetry service which was designed to support billing systems for
+ OpenStack cloud resources uses a NoSQL database to store information.
+ The database typically runs on the controller node.
+
+ * **Node 2**: This node has Controller and Ceph-osd roles. Ceph is a
+ massively scalable, open source, distributed storage system. It is
+ comprised of an object store, block store and a POSIX-compliant distributed
+ file system. Enabling Ceph, configures Nova to store ephemeral volumes in
+ RBD, configures Glance to use the Ceph RBD backend to store images,
+ configures Cinder to store volumes in Ceph RBD images and configures the
+ default number of object replicas in Ceph.
+
+ * **Node 3**: This node has Controller role in order to achieve high
+ availability.
+
+ * **Node 4**: This node has Compute role. The compute node runs the
+ hypervisor portion of Compute that operates tenant virtual machines
+ or instances. By default, Compute uses KVM as the hypervisor.
+
+ * **Node 5**: This node has compute role.
+
+* dha-override-config:Provides information about the VM definition and
+ Network config for virtual deployment.These configurations overrides
+ the pod dha definition and points to the controller,compute and
+ fuel definition files.
+
+* os-nosdn-kvm-ha scenario is successful when all the 5 Nodes are accessible,
+ up and running
+
+Scenario Usage Overview
+=======================
+.. Provide a brief overview on how to use the scenario and the features available to the
+.. user. This should be an "introduction" to the userguide document, and explicitly link to it,
+.. where the specifics of the features are covered including examples and API's
+
+* The high availability feature can be acheived by executing deploy.py with
+ ha_nfv-kvm_heat_ceilometer_scenario.yaml as an argument.
+* Install Fuel Master and deploy OPNFV Cloud from scratch on Hardware
+ Environment:
+
+ -Example:
+
+ sudo python deploy.py -iso ~/ISO/opnfv.iso -dea ~/CONF/hardware/dea.yaml -dha ~/CONF/hardware/dha.yaml -s /mnt/images -b pxebr -log ~/Deployment-888.log.tar.gz
+
+* Install Fuel Master and deploy OPNFV Cloud from scratch on Virtual
+ Environment:
+
+ -Example:
+
+ sudo python deploy.py -iso ~/ISO/opnfv.iso -dea ~/CONF/virtual/dea.yaml -dha ~/CONF/virtual/dha.yaml -s /mnt/images -log ~/Deployment-888.log.tar.gz
+
+* os-nosdn-kvm-ha scenario can be executed from the jenkins project
+ "fuel-os-nosdn-kvm-ha-baremetal-daily-master"
+* This scenario provides the High Availability feature by deploying
+ 3 controller,2 compute nodes and checking if all the 5 nodes
+ are accessible(IP,up & running).
+* Test Scenario is passed if deployment is successful and all 5 nodes have
+ accessibility (IP , up & running).
+* Observed that scenario is not running any testcase on top of deployment.
+
+Known Limitations, Issues and Workarounds
+=========================================
+.. Explain any known limitations here.
+
+* Test scenario os-nosdn-kvm-ha result is not stable. After node reboot
+ triggered by kvm plugin, sometimes puppet agent (mcollective) is not
+ responding with in the given time.
