Full cloud with the Compute service and flat networking
=======================================================

This section documents running tempest on a full OpenStack cloud with the
Compute, Image and Networking services enabled. The Bare Metal Introspection
service (ironic-inspector) is not enabled. Flat networking is used.

Prerequisite
------------

* `Create a bare metal flavor`_ in the Compute service in advance
  and record its ID (``<flavor uuid>`` below).

* `Create an image`_ to use for instances and record its ID (``<image uuid>``).
  It can be either a whole disk or a partition image.

* Create and record the name or UUID of a flat network to use for bare metal
  instances (``<network name>``).

* Get the minimum and maximum API versions that you want to test against.
  Check the `API version history`_ to find the appropriate versions for
  your deployment.

  .. note:: The minimum version can usually be set to ``1.1``.

* Enroll_ at least one node and make it ``available``.
