<div name="messageBodySection" style="font-size: 14px; font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, sans-serif;">Thank you.
<div>The reason i am asking is because, my goals of using Airship goes much beyond using it just for Openstack.</div>
<div><br /></div>
<div>We are a full CentOS7 HPC cluster with about 800 servers/nodes working together as a supercomputer.</div>
<div><br /></div>
<div>Currently, </div>
<div>For baremetal/VM deployment- i use Foreman together with Hiera and various yaml files/tags/facts that i get for different servers. Once deployed - puppet then configures the OS on baremetal nodes depending on the same tags/facts/yaml files from Hiera.</div>
<div><br /></div>
<div>I see that - Airship uses a similar declarative design with yaml but deploys services on containers.</div>
<div><br /></div>
<div>My goal was to use Airship and see if i can deploy both baremetal servers and openstack/VMs using the same yaml files.</div>
<div>It would thus be more like Infrastructure as a code. </div>
<div><br /></div>
<div>I am not sure if this would be the correct approach, or if i have to deploy Openstack and instead use Openstack Ironic to deploy the baremetal nodes.</div>
<div>The issue with the Openstack Ironic approach is that i want to use the same declarative yaml design that airship uses to deploy ironic nodes too, and i am not sure how much would that be possible.</div>
<div>Also - I want to use the same approach to deploy instances on public cloud too, so may be using Openstack Ironic would be a better way to go.</div>
<div><br /></div>
<div>If it is currently not possible to do any of the above - I would like to know, if there is way that i could get involved in future road-maps and see if this could be one of the directions that airship can help me.</div>
<div><br /></div>
<div>Also - would it be too difficult for me to try if Airship can work with MAAS and deploy CentOS7 instead of Ubuntu?</div>

<div>Hi,</div>
<div><br /></div>
<div>As of now we do not have an official way to run Airship on CentOS7, however there is an ongoing collaboration with Suse to add a multi-os support for both OSH & Airship.</div>
<div>This work should make it easier to add other operating systems in the future if there is an interest and support from the community.<br /></div>
<div><br /></div>
<div>Thanks,<br /></div>

<div><br /></div>
<div>I have tried researching as much as possible within the documentation - but is Airship only available to install only on Ubuntu as of now?</div>
<div><br /></div>
<div>Can i get it working on CentOS7 VM?</div>
