 Affinity/Anti Affinity of instances in a groups
 ===============================================
 
-This task can be divided into two separate parts. First is a change of behavior

-Questions
+This BP proposes a way for creating affinity and anti-affinity for ironic nodes.
+
+Problem description
+===================
+
+Currently there is no way to create aggregation for Ironic nodes, instead
+aggregates works only for compute nodes, so it is impossible for creating
+affinity/anti-affinity rules for such nodes
+
+Use Cases
 ---------
 
-There are several ways that aggregate (anti)affinity could be defined
-expressed.
+As a system administrator I want to be able to define aggregation of the Ironic
+nodes in Nova, so that I can apply affinity or anti-affinity policy to the
+server group.
 
-#. Pass through hints, both information about server group and condition for
-   server placement against host aggregates:
+As a system administrator I want to be able to define aggregation of the Ironic
+nodes in Nova, so that I can define logical division of my data center.
 
-   .. code:: shell-session
+Proposed change
+===============
 
-      openstack aggregate-create rack1
-      openstack aggregate-create rack2
-      openstack aggregate-set-metadata rack1 rack=1
-      openstack aggregate-set-metadata rack2 rack=1
-      openstack aggregate-add-host rack1 <UUID of Ironic node A>
-      openstack aggregate-add-host rack2 <UUID of Ironic node B>
-      openstack server-group-create not-same-rack anti-affinity
-      openstack server create --image=IMAGE_ID --flavor=1 \
-          --hint group=not-same-rack --hint property=rack
+This task can be divided into two separate parts. First is a change of behavior
+of host aggregates, to be able to include ironic nodes.
 
-#. Implement own policies to set on instance groups, like
-   ``rack_antiaffinity``, ``pz_antiaffinity`` etc, and than during boot time
-   just pass a server group name. For instance:
+Second, involves changes to the scheduler to support spreading instances across
+various groups.
 
-   .. code:: shell-session
+Example session, which present the change, could be as follows:
 
-      openstack aggregate-create rack1
-      openstack aggregate-create rack2
-      openstack aggregate-set-metadata rack1 rack=1
-      openstack aggregate-set-metadata rack2 rack=1
-      openstack aggregate-add-host rack1 <UUID of Ironic node A>
-      openstack aggregate-add-host rack2 <UUID of Ironic node B>
-      openstack server-group-create not-same-rack rack-anti-affinity
-      openstack server create --image=IMAGE_ID --flavor=1 \
-          --hint group=not-same-rack
+.. code:: shell-session
 
-#. Hardcode policy into the server group name, but this requires from users, to
-   be very strict about naming of server groups:
+   openstack aggregate create rack1
+   openstack aggregate create rack2
+   openstack aggregate set --property rack=1 rack1
+   openstack aggregate set --property rack=1 rack2
+   openstack aggregate add host rack1 <UUID of Ironic node A>
+   openstack aggregate add host rack2 <UUID of Ironic node B>
+   openstack server group create --policy rack-anti-affinity not-same-rack
+   openstack server create --image=IMAGE_ID --flavor=1 \
+       --hint group=not-same-rack server1
 
-   .. code:: shell-session
+First, we create two aggregates which would represent the rack, next we append
+a rack metadata set to 1, so it indicate that this aggregate is ``rack`` based,
+next we add ironic nodes by their UUID. Next, we create server group, with
+desired policy, and finally spin the instance.

-      openstack aggregate-add-host rack1 <UUID of Ironic node A>
-      openstack aggregate-add-host rack2 <UUID of Ironic node B>
-      openstack server-group-create rack-<unique-name> anti-affinity
