Physical infrastructure

One controller node, two compute nodes (Blades in a pureflex center)After we discovered a performance problem on our first lab infrastructure, we tried to setup Openstack & ONAP on a bare metal server in Softlayer. This was the break through which let a lot of issues we had before simply disappear. Nevertheless, some of the experience made it into a JIRA entry to improve the way the VMs and/or containers are started.

N.B.: We use shared SAN disks in the lab as one of may users. We believe that this creates a bottleneck and we re-create the Openstack instance on some alternative hardware. Details coming soonThe disk size is a bit small, we decreased the disk sizes in the big flavors (a see could see that from 160GB requested disk size only ~6GB were used after install). We will change compute nodes shortly to ones with more disk space.

Other observations

A few observations we made during the setup of on vanilla Openstack.
