However, one baremetal machine is still needed to act as the host for the virtual machines. .. warning:: Virtual deployments with TripleO are for development and testing purposes only. This method cannot be used for production-ready deployments. The tripleo-quickstart project is used for creating virtual envirionments for use with TripleO.
