+Divingbell Ansible Framework
+============================
+
+Ansible playbooks to achieve tasks for making bare metal changes
+for Divingbell target use cases.
+
+Links
+=====
+
+The work to author and implement this spec will be tracked under this `Storyboard Story`_
+
+Problem description
+===================
+
+Divingbell uses DaemonSets and complex shell scripting to make bare metal
+changes. This raises 2 problems:
+- Increasing number of DaemonSets on each host with increasing Divingbell
+usecases
+- Reinventing the wheel by writing complex shell scripting logic to make
+bare metal changes.
+
+Impacted components
+===================
+
+The following Airship components will be impacted by this solution:
+
+#. Divingbell: Introducing Ansible framework to make bare metal changes
+
+Proposed change
+===============
+
+This spec intends to introduce Ansible framework within Divingbell which is
+much simpler to make any bare metal configuration changes as compared to
+existing approach of writing complex shell scripting to achieve the same
+functionality.
+
+Adding playbook
+---------------
+
+Ansible playbooks should be written for making any configuration changes
+on the host.
+
+Existing shell script logic for making bare metal changes lives under
+``divingbell/templates/bin``, wherever applicable these should be replaced
+by newly written Ansible playbooks as described in the sections below.
+Ansible playbooks would be part of the Divingbell image.
+
+A separate directory structure needs to be created for adding the playbooks.
+Each Divingbell config can be a separate role within the playbook structure.
+
+::
+    - playbooks/
+        - roles/
+             - systcl/
+             - limits/
+        - group_vars
+             - all
+        - master.yml
+
+Files under ``group_vars`` should be loaded as a Kubernetes ``ConfigMap`` or
+``Secret`` inside the container. Existing entries in ``values.yaml`` for
+Divingbell should be used for populating the entries in the file under
+``group_vars``.
+
+This PS `Initial commit for Ansible framework`_ should be used as a reference
+PS for implementing the Ansibile framework.
+
+Ansible Host
+------------
+
+With Divingbell DaemonSet running on each host mounted at ``hostPath``,
+``hosts`` should be defined as given below within the ``master.yml``.
+
+::
+    hosts: all
+    connection: chroot
+
+Ansible chroot plugin should be used for making host level changes.
+`Ansible chroot plugin_`
+
+Divingbell Image
+----------------
+
+Dockerfile should be created containing the below steps:
+
+  - Pull base image
+  - Install Ansible
+  - Define working directory
+  - Copy the playbooks to the working directory
+
+Divingbell DaemonSets
+---------------------
+
+All the Divingbell DaemonSets that follow declarative and idempotent models
+should be replaced with a single DaemonSet. This DaemonSet will be
+responsible for populating required entries in ``group_vars`` as
+``volumeMounts``. Ansible command to run the playbook should be invoked from
+within the ``DaemonSet`` spec.
+
+The Ansible command to run the playbook should be invoked from within
+the ``DaemonSet`` spec.
+
+The Divingbell DaemonSet for ``exec`` module should be left out from this framework
+and it should keep functioning as a separate DaemonSet.
+
+Ansible Rollback
+----------------
+
+Rollback should be achieved via the ``update_site`` action i.e. if a playbook
+introduces a bad change into the environment then the recovery path would be to
+correct the change in the playbooks and run ``update_site`` with new changes.
+
+Security impact
+---------------
+
+None -  No new security impacts are introduced with this design.
+
+Performance impact
+------------------
+
+As this design reduces the number of DaemonSets being used within Divingbell,
+it will be an improvement in performance.
+
+Implementation
+==============
+
+This implementation should start off as a separate entity and not make
+parallel changes by removing the existing functonality.
+
+New Divingbell usecases can be first targetted with the Ansible framework
+while existing framework can co-exist with the new framework.
+
+Dependencies
+============
+
+Adds new dependency - Ansible framework.
