There is a need to have common config files for pod/hardware, build, deploy, and test:
Different teams work on creating a common definition for those configuration files. Pod-setup is done by the Pharos team, Build and Deploy are worked by Genesis, and Test is done by the different testing teams.
Having a view of how the different deployment tools approach system configuration should ease distilling a common approach. Below is a listing of existing approaches of the install tools as well as snapshots of the current discussion. Note: This wiki is a snapshot in time. Definition of these common files is still work in progress!
