Compute server Software Requirements:

The local controller will install all the software in compute servers right from OS, the software required to bring up the Kubernetes cluster <--- SM comment "local controller installs OS on compute servers?" >>>

Execution Requirements (Bare Metal Only)

ICN BP check all the precondition and execution requirements for both Baremetal and VM deployment <--- SM comment "Heading indicates only Baremetal but the text here mentions both types of deployments including VM" >>>

User required to provide the IPMI information of the edge server they required to connect to the local controller by editing node JSON sample file in the directory icn/deploy/metal3/scripts/nodes.json.sample as below. This example shows only for 2 nodes, If you want to increase nodes, just add another array

{
  "nodes": [
    {
      "name": "edge01-node01",
      "ipmi_driver_info": {
        "username": "admin",
        "password": "admin",
        "address": "10.10.10.11"
