Hi Ruchika,

The flavor information should already be created for either the Basic or Advanced scenario:

https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux_OpenStack_Platform/7/html-single/Director_Installation_and_Usage/index.html#sect-Creating_Flavors_for_the_Basic_Scenario

https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux_OpenStack_Platform/7/html-single/Director_Installation_and_Usage/index.html#sect-Advanced-Creating_Hardware_Profiles

These flavors are linked to the node using the following command (which is included in the instructions):

$ ironic node-update [NODE UUID] add properties/capabilities='profile:compute,boot_option:local'

The this sets the profile to 'compute'. This links to the compute flavor, which is also tagged 'profile:compute'. The director deploys the node as a flavor depending on what it reads for 'profile:*' for both the node and the flavor.

If you do not set a profile, the director defaults to the 'baremetal' flavor, which should also already be created as per the instructions above.

Please let me know if there was anything else to add to this bug. If not, I'll close it.
