+# This playbook has been generated by the `validation init` CLI.
+#
+# As shown here in this template, the validation playbook requires three
+# top-level directive:
+#   ``hosts``, ``vars -> metadata`` and ``roles``.
+#
+# ``hosts``: specifies which nodes to run the validation on. The options can
+#            be ``all`` (run on all nodes), or you could use the hosts defined
+#            in the inventory.
+# ``vars``: this section serves for storing variables that are going to be
+#           available to the Ansible playbook. The validations API uses the
+#           ``metadata`` section to read each validation's name and description
+#           These values are then reported by the API.
+#
+# The validations can be grouped together by specyfying a ``groups`` metadata.
+# Groups function similar to tags and a validation can thus be part of many
+# groups. To get a full list of the groups available and their description,
+# please run the following command on your Ansible Controller host:
+#
+#    $ validation show group
+#
+# The validations can also be categorized by technical domain and acan belong to
+# one or multiple ``categories``. For example, if your validation checks some
+# networking related configuration, you may want to put ``networking`` as a
+# category.  Note that this section is open and you are free to categorize your
+# validations as you like.
+#
+# The ``products`` section refers to the product on which you would like to run
+# the validation. It's another way to categorized your community validations.
+# Note that, by default, ``community`` is set in the ``products`` section to
+# help you list your validations by filtering by products:
+#
+#    $ validation list --product community
