=============================
The title of your use case
=============================
Introduction paragraph -- what function are you attempting to support
with OpenStack?
Glossary
========
Provide a list of acronyms, their expansions, and what they actually mean in
general language here. Define any terms that are specific to your problem
domain. If there are devices, appliances, or software stacks that you expect
to interact with OpenStack, list them here.
Remember: OpenStack is used for a large number of deployments, and
the better you communicate your use case the easier it will be to implement.
**reST**
reStructuredText is a simple markup language
**TLA**
Three-Letter Abbreviation is an abbreviation consisting of three letters
**xyz**
Another example abbreviation
Problem description
===================
A detailed description of the problem. This should include the types of
functions that you expect to run on OpenStack and their interactions both
with OpenStack and with external systems.
User Stories
------------
A list of user stories ideally in this or a similar format:
* As a <type of user>, I want to <goal> so that <benefit>
* ...
Examples
--------
In order to explain your use case, if possible, provide an example of a
currently implemented or documented planned solution.
If you have multiple examples (the more the merrier) you may want to use
a numbered list, like the following:
1. 1st Example
2. 2nd Example
3. Sometimes it could be helpful to *format text italic*, e.g. to add
some background information
Affected By
-----------
If you are aware of any work in progress that will affect this use case,
please list it here. Include links to a spec or blueprint or bug report
where applicable.
Please note that this step is optional, leave this section blank if you are
unsure.
Requirements
============
Use this section to describe the functions you need to successfully support
your use case. If you have requirements which are currently not addressed by
OpenStack please highlight them. Note however, this will not mean that they
necessarily will be implemented. Please refrain from specifying implementation
details.
* 1st Requirement
* 2nd Requirement
* *and so on*
Related Use Cases
=================
If there are related use cases that have some overlap in the problem
domain or that you perceive may partially share requirements or a
solution, reference them here.
Gaps
====
This section should be used to provide information on the difference
between requirements that are currently met within OpenStack and
those that are not. Requirements not met by OpenStack but that the
author feels should be addressed by it should be listed here.
If you are already aware of any gaps that exist in OpenStack that
prevent the implementation of this use case, provide them here and
highlight the related module if possible.
To highlight text you can format it **bold**.
This section can often be left with "None currently known." It is
the purpose of this working group and repository to use the
use cases presented here to identify what the gaps are.
**NAME-THE-MODULE issues:**
* You can list a gaps in bulleted list
* with some subitems
* if it is necessary
* and refer to a reference [Ref. 1] mentioned above
* Always pay attention on the correct syntax and use blank lines
between formatted paragraphs.
* Take a look at [Ref. 1] for more details about concepts and syntax
of reStructuredText (reST).
**ANOTHER-MODULE issues:**
If you want to display lines of code to emphasize the gap you can
make use of a literal code block::
This a an example code
by using two colons and additonal line breaks at beginning and end.
References
==========
If any of your requirements specifically call for the implementation
of a standard or protocol or other well-defined mechanism, use this
section to list them.
