Provide a script for interpreting the "only" directives and splitting the existing content up into standalone files for each OS to make it easier for project teams to copy the parts they need into their own project documentation trees without requiring separate platform builds. The files have been hand-edited to pass the niceness check and to allow the install guide to build. The script for building the guide has been changed to not build separate copies per OS.

Install and configure a compute node
This section describes how to install and configure the Compute
service on a compute node. The service supports several hypervisors <hypervisor>
to deploy instances <instance>
or VMs <virtual machine (VM)>
. For simplicity,
this configuration uses the QEMU <Quick EMUlator (QEMU)>
hypervisor with
the KVM <kernel-based VM (KVM)>
extension on
compute nodes that support hardware acceleration for virtual machines.
On legacy hardware, this configuration uses the generic QEMU hypervisor.
You can follow these instructions with minor modifications to
horizontally scale your environment with additional compute nodes.
Note
This section assumes that you are following the instructions in this
guide step-by-step to configure the first compute node. If you want to
configure additional compute nodes, prepare them in a similar fashion to
the first compute node in the example architectures
<overview-example-architectures>
section. Each additional
compute node requires a unique IP address.
