System Limitations
------------------
-The Euphrates 3.0 release has a few limitations:
-
-1 - The testcase sfc_two_chains_SSH_and_HTTP is disabled in this release due to
-bugs in ODL, Tacker and networking-sfc:
-
-https://bugs.opendaylight.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9221

-https://bugs.launchpad.net/networking-sfc/+bug/1719883
-
-2 - The topology CLIENT_SERVER_SAME_HOST does not work due to a bug in the
-vxlan_tool. This tool is part of the ODL-SFC repo and provides support for
-non-NSH-aware SFs:
-
-https://bugs.opendaylight.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9219
-
-3 - The topologies CLIENT_SERVER_DIFFERENT_HOST_SPLIT_VNF and
-CLIENT_SERVER_SAME_HOST_SPLIT_VNF do not work because of a ODL bug:
-
-https://bugs.opendaylight.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9220
-
-
Known issues
------------
-1 - OpenDaylight SFC relies on a version of Open vSwitch (OVS) with
-Network Service Headers (NSH). A version of OVS with NSH currently
-exists, but it is in a branched version of OVS. Extensive upstream
-work has been done to merge the NSH patches into mainstream OVS,
-but the work is still not complete. More information about this
-can be found in the OPNFV SFC design document (link provided above).
-
-2 - Due to a bug in tacker:
-
-https://bugs.launchpad.net/tacker/+bug/1719841
-
-it is not possible to run the SFC scenarios in openstack environments
-which require SSL connections to public endpoints and use self-signed
-certificates
-
Workarounds
-----------
-There is a way to avoid the known issue number 2 when using xci. Once
-the deployment is successfully done, go to tacker server and modify
-line 242 of the file:
-
-/openstack/venvs/tacker-15.1.7/lib/python2.7/site-packages/keystoneauth1/session.py
-
-So that instead of having:
-
-self.verify = verify
-
-It has:
-
-self.verify = False
-
-Forcing tacker to not check the certificates
-
-
Test results
============
-The Euphrates release of SFC has undergone QA test runs
-with Functest tests on the Apex installer and xci utility

-Introduction
-============
-.. In this section explain the purpose of the scenario and the types of capabilities provided
-
-The os-odl-sfc_fdio-ha is intended to be used to install the OPNFV SFC project in a standard
-OPNFV High Availability mode. The OPNFV SFC project integrates the OpenDaylight SFC project
-into the OPNFV environment. The OPNFV SFC Euphrates release uses the OpenDaylight Nitrogen SR1 release.
-
-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 installs everything needed to use the SFC OpenDaylight project in an OPNFV
-environment. The classifier used in this scenario is implemented by the Netvirt OpenDaylight
-project.
-
-Following is a detailed list of what is included with this scenario:
-
-OpenDaylight features installed
--------------------------------
-
-The OpenDaylight SDN controller is installed in the controller node.
-
-The following are the SFC features that get installed:
-
-- odl-sfc-model
-- odl-sfc-provider
-- odl-sfc-provider-rest
-- odl-sfc-ovs
-- odl-sfc-openflow-renderer
-
-The following are the Netvirt features that get installed:
-
-- odl-netvirt-openstack
-- odl-sfc-genius
-- odl-neutron-service
-- odl-neutron-northbound-api
-- odl-neutron-spi
-- odl-neutron-transcriber
-- odl-ovsdb-southbound-impl-api
-- odl-ovsdb-southbound-impl-impl
-- odl-ovsdb-library
-
-By simply installing the odl-netvirt-sfc feature, all the dependant features
-will automatically be installed.
-
-The VNF Manager
----------------
-
-In order to create a VM for each Service Function, a VNF Manager is needed. The OPNFV
-SFC project currently uses the Tacker OpenStack project as a VNF Manager. Tacker is
-installed on the controller node and manages VNF life cycle, and coordinates VM creation
-and SFC configuration with OpenStack and OpenDaylight SFC project.
-
-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
-
-Once this scenario is installed, it will be possible to create Service Chains and
-classification entries to map tenant traffic to individual, pre-defined Service Chains.
-All configuration can be performed using the Tacker CLI.
-
-Limitations, Issues and Workarounds
-===================================
-.. Explain scenario limitations here, this should be at a design level rather than discussing
-.. faults or bugs. If the system design only provide some expected functionality then provide
-.. some insight at this point.
-
-The *client* virtual machine needs to be located in a compute node where at least
-one of the service functions (SFs) is placed. This is due to a limitation in OpenDaylight,
-Nitrogen, which only installs the traffic classifier in the compute nodes where the SFs are.

-Introduction
-============
-.. In this section explain the purpose of the scenario and the types of capabilities provided
-
-The os-odl-sfc_fdio-noha is intended to be used to install the OPNFV SFC project in a standard
-OPNFV Non-High Availability mode. The OPNFV SFC project integrates the OpenDaylight SFC
-project into the OPNFV environment. The OPNFV SFC Euphrates release uses the OpenDaylight
-Nitrogen SR1 release.
-
-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 installs everything needed to use the SFC OpenDaylight project in an OPNFV
-environment. Since this scenario is Non-High Availability, then only one controller and
-one compute node will be deployed. The classifier used in this scenario is implemented
-by the Netvirt OpenDaylight project.
-
-Following is a detailed list of what is included with this scenario:
-
-OpenDaylight features installed
--------------------------------
-
-The OpenDaylight SDN controller is installed in the controller node.
-
-The following are the SFC features that get installed:
-
-- odl-sfc-model
-- odl-sfc-provider
-- odl-sfc-provider-rest
-- odl-sfc-ovs
-- odl-sfc-openflow-renderer
-
-The following are the Netvirt features that get installed:
-
-- odl-netvirt-openstack
-- odl-sfc-genius
-- odl-neutron-service
-- odl-neutron-northbound-api
-- odl-neutron-spi
-- odl-neutron-transcriber
-- odl-ovsdb-southbound-impl-api
-- odl-ovsdb-southbound-impl-impl
-- odl-ovsdb-library
-
-By simply installing the odl-netvirt-sfc feature, all the dependant features
-will automatically be installed.
-
-The VNF Manager
----------------
-
-In order to create a VM for each Service Function, a VNF Manager is needed. The OPNFV
-SFC project currently uses the Tacker OpenStack project as a VNF Manager. Tacker is
-installed on the controller node and manages VNF life cycle, and coordinates VM creation
-with the OpenDaylight SFC project.
-
-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
-
-Once this scenario is installed, it will be possible to create Service Chains and
-classification entries to map tenant traffic to individual, pre-defined Service Chains.
-All configuration can be performed using the Tacker CLI.
-
-Limitations, Issues and Workarounds
-===================================
-.. Explain scenario limitations here, this should be at a design level rather than discussing
-.. faults or bugs. If the system design only provide some expected functionality then provide
-.. some insight at this point.
-
-The *client* virtual machine needs to be located in a compute node where at least
-one of the service functions (SFs) is placed. This is due to a limitation in OpenDaylight,
-Nitrogen, which only installs the traffic classifier in the compute nodes where the SFs are.
-
-Specific version of FD.IO
------------------------

The OPNFV SFC feature can be deployed with either the "os-odl-sfc-ha" or the
"os-odl-sfc-noha" scenario. SFC usage for both of these scenarios is the same.
+Once the deployment has been completed, the SFC test cases use information
+(e.g. INSTALLER IP, Controller IP, etc) of the environment which have been
+retrieved first from the installer in order to execute the SFC test cases properly.
+This is the default behavior.
+In case there is not an installer in place and the server for the SFC test execution
+has been prepared manually, installing all necessary components (e.g. OpenStack OpenDayLight etc)
+by hand. The user should update the "pod.yaml" file, including the all necessary details
+for each node which participates in the scenario.
+In case the dovetail project triggers the SFC test scenarios, the "pod.yaml" file will be prepared
+by dovetail project automatically.

As previously mentioned, Tacker is used as a VNF Manager and SFC Orchestrator. All
the configuration necessary to create working service chains and classifiers can
be performed using the Tacker command line. Refer to the `Tacker walkthrough <https://github.com/trozet/sfc-random/blob/master/tacker_sfc_apex_walkthrough.txt>`_
