Hello everyone,

I plan to run openstack ice house using the legacy nova networkapproach (No Neuton). However, I also plan to run only one VM instance per Physical host which brings me to my questions;

1) Judging from this documentation(http://docs.openstack.org/icehouse/config-reference/content/baremetal.html), I have to make some few changes on the nova.conf file of each compute node. Is that all or do I need to run neutron as well as a pre-requisite?
2) I read that it is possible to boot a specific image on a specific compute node. Is it possible to assign a specific ip adress to a compute node as well? If yes, can you please tell me how?

Thanks!
