Matthew Kassawara 5ee72cfa36 [install] Fix various minor problems
Fix the following minor problems to reduce work after
stable/liberty branching:

1) RDO: Revert Python MySQL library from PyMySQL to MySQL-python
   due to lack of support for the former.
2) RDO: Explicitly install 'ebtables' and 'ipset' packages due
   to dependency problems.
3) General: Change numbered list to bulleted list for lists with
   only one item.
4) General: Restructure horizon content to match other services.
   More duplication of content, but sometimes RST conditionals
   are terrible and distro packages should use the same
   configuration files.
5) General: Restructure NoSQL content to match SQL content.
6) General: Improve clarity of NTP content.

Controller node
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Perform these steps on the controller node.
Install and configure components
--------------------------------
1. Install the packages:
.. only:: ubuntu or debian
.. code-block:: console
# apt-get install chrony
.. only:: rdo
.. code-block:: console
# yum install chrony
.. only:: obs
On openSUSE:
.. code-block:: console
# zypper addrepo -f obs://network:time/openSUSE_13.2 network_time
# zypper refresh
# zypper install chrony
On SLES:
.. code-block:: console
# zypper addrepo -f obs://network:time/SLE_12 network_time
# zypper refresh
# zypper install chrony
.. note::
The packages are signed by GPG key ``17280DDF``. You should
verify the fingerprint of the imported GPG key before using it.
.. code-block:: console
Key Name: network OBS Project <network@build.opensuse.org>
Key Fingerprint: 0080689B E757A876 CB7DC269 62EB1A09 17280DDF
Key Created: Tue 24 Sep 2013 04:04:12 PM UTC
Key Expires: Thu 03 Dec 2015 04:04:12 PM UTC
.. only:: ubuntu or debian
2. Edit the ``/etc/chrony/chrony.conf`` file and add, change, or remove the
following keys as necessary for your environment:
.. code-block:: ini
server NTP_SERVER iburst
Replace ``NTP_SERVER`` with the hostname or IP address of a suitable more
accurate (lower stratum) NTP server. The configuration supports multiple
``server`` keys.
.. note::
By default, the controller node synchronizes the time via a pool of
public servers. However, you can optionally configure alternative
servers such as those provided by your organization.
3. Restart the NTP service:
.. code-block:: console
# service chrony restart
.. only:: rdo or obs
2. Edit the ``/etc/chrony.conf`` file and add, change, or remove the
following keys as necessary for your environment:
.. code-block:: ini
server NTP_SERVER iburst
Replace ``NTP_SERVER`` with the hostname or IP address of a suitable more
accurate (lower stratum) NTP server. The configuration supports multiple
``server`` keys.
.. note::
By default, the controller node synchronizes the time via a pool of
public servers. However, you can optionally configure alternative
servers such as those provided by your organization.
3. To enable other nodes to connect to the chrony daemon on the controller,
add the following key to the ``/etc/chrony.conf`` file:
.. code-block:: ini
allow 10.0.0.0/24
If necessary, replace ``10.0.0.0/24`` with a description of your subnet.
4. Start the NTP service and configure it to start when the system boots:
.. code-block:: console
# systemctl enable chronyd.service
# systemctl start chronyd.service
