NVIDIA Support for TripleO Ussuri Application Notes

InfiniBand Hybrid Deployment

The following section details the steps which are required in order to perform a hybrid deployment with a virtual and a baremetal InfiniBand host:

Make sure you follow the steps in Undercloud Configuration and Installation, and then edit the following file as illustrated below:

vi /usr/share/openstack-tripleo-heat-templates/environments/services/neutron-mlnx-agent.yaml

Example:

Deploy the overcloud by using the appropriate templates and yaml file from the heat templates, as shown in the following example:
