Bug 2041429

"openstack overcloud node provision" will provision the overcloud nodes as per the provided baremetal_deployment.yaml file and then run network-config (os-net-config).

For NFV, before running os-net-config, there are a few other steps to be run to successfully complete os-net-config. First is kernel args, which is addressed by BZ #2035325. Second is to configure OvS-DPDK, which requires to be configured before os-net-config but after kernel args.


Refer the deploy_steps_tasks from https://github.com/openstack/tripleo-heat-templates/blob/master/deployment/openvswitch/openvswitch-dpdk-baremetal-ansible.yaml file (pasted below for reference). There need to be an option to configure OvS-DPDK before network config on "overcloud node provision" command.
