Hardware -------- 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 `_ 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/brahmaputra.1.0/docs/opnfv-jenkins-slave-connection.brahmaputra.1.0.html **Servers** **CPU:** * Intel Xeon E5-2600v2 Series or newer **Local Storage:** 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 mayproduce a better result. * Disks: 2 x 1TB HDD + 1 x 100GB SSD (or greater capacity) * The first HDD should be used for OS & additional software/tool installation * The second HDD is configured for CEPH object storage * The SSD should be used as the CEPH journal * Performance testing requires a mix of compute nodes with 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 power supply acceptable (redundant power not required/nice to have) ..
