+Pharos compliant environment
+----------------------------
+
+A pharos compliant OPNFV test-bed provides:
+
+- One CentOS 7 jump server on which the virtualized Openstack/OPNFV installer runs
+- In the Brahmaputra release you may select a variety of deployment toolchains to deploy from the jump server.
+- 5 compute / controller nodes (`BGS <https://wiki.opnfv.org/get_started/get_started_work_environment>`_ requires 5 nodes)
+- A configured network topology allowing for LOM, Admin, Public, Private, and Storage Networks
+- Remote access as defined by the Jenkins slave configuration guide
+http://artifacts.opnfv.org/arno.2015.1.0/docs/opnfv-jenkins-slave-connection.arno.2015.1.0.pdf
+
+Hardware requirements
+---------------------
+
+**Servers**
+
+CPU:
+
+* Intel Xeon E5-2600v2 Series
+(Ivy Bridge and newer, or similar)
+
+Local Storage Configuration:
+
+Below describes the minimum for the Pharos spec,
+which is designed to provide enough capacity for
+a reasonably functional environment. Additional
+and/or faster disks are nice to have and may
+produce a better result.
+
+* Disks: 2 x 1TB + 1 x 100GB SSD
+* The first 1TB HDD should be used for OS & additional software/tool installation
+* The second 1TB HDD configured for CEPH object storage
+* Finally, the 100GB SSD should be used as the CEPH journal
+* Performance testing requires a mix of compute nodes that have CEPH(swift+Cinder) and without CEPH storage
+* Virtual ISO boot capabilities or a separate PXE boot server (DHCP/tftp or Cobbler)
+
+Memory:
+
+* 32G RAM Minimum
+
+Power Supply Single
+
+* Single power supply acceptable (redundant power not required/nice to have)
