This converts all MD formatted docs that were renamed to RST to
preserve git history into actual RST documentation. Some minor
edits were made but in general the purpose of this patch is to
*only* convert the documentation not rework the documentation.
I do plan on reworking the documentation in further patch sets.
All links were tested and a test rendering is available:

Developer Environment
If you are developing Kolla on an existing OpenStack cloud that supports Heat, then follow the Heat template README. Another option available on systems with VirutalBox is the use of Vagrant.
The best experience is available with bare metal deployment by following the instructions below to manually create your Kolla deployment.
Installing Dependencies
NB: Kolla will not run on Fedora 22 or later. Fedora 22 compresses kernel modules with the .xz compressed format. The guestfs system cannot read these images because a dependent package supermin in CentOS needs to be updated to add .xz compressed format support.
To install Kolla depenedencies use:
git clone http://github.com/stackforge/kolla
cd kolla
sudo pip install -r requirements.txtIn order to run Kolla, it is mandatory to run a version of
docker that is 1.7.0 or later.
For most systems you can install the latest stable version of Docker with the following command:
curl -sSL https://get.docker.io | bashFor Ubuntu based systems, do not use AUFS when starting Docker daemon unless you are running the Utopic (3.19) kernel. AUFS requires CONFIG_AUFS_XATTR=y set when building the kernel. On Ubuntu, versions prior to 3.19 did not set that flag. If you are unable to upgrade your kernel, you should use a different storage backend such as btrfs.
Next, install the OpenStack python clients if they are not installed:
sudo pip install -U python-openstackclientFinally stop libvirt on the host machine. Only one copy of libvirt may be running at a time.
service libvirtd stopThe basic starting environment will be created using
ansible. This environment will start up the OpenStack
services listed in the inventory file.
Starting Kolla
Configure Ansible by reading the Kolla Ansible configuration documentation.
Next, run the start command:
$ sudo ./tools/kolla-ansible deployA bare metal system takes three minutes to deploy AIO. A virtual machine takes five minutes to deploy AIO. These are estimates; your hardware may be faster or slower but should near these results.
Debugging Kolla
You can determine a container's status by executing:
$ sudo docker ps -aIf any of the containers exited you can check the logs by executing:
$ sudo docker logs <container-name>
