Now that the phase 1 refactor is under review and passing CI, I think it's time to come to a conclusion on this.

This option looks like the best compromise between keeping it simple and dropping the least possible amount of features. So unless someone has a better idea, I'll work on that as soon as the current review is merged.

Would it be possible :-

  - By default we install everything, so all in one
    - If our host is not CONFIG_CONTROLLER_HOST but is part of
     CONFIG_NETWORK_HOSTS, we apply the network manifest
    - Same as above if our host is part of CONFIG_COMPUTE_HOSTS
    - If our host is not CONFIG_CONTROLLER_HOST but is part of 
      CONFIG_STORAGE_HOSTS
, we apply the storage manifest

Just one more role. May we have 4 roles ?


Thanks
Boris.

Javier
