Robert Kukura 4bc66f1e8d [AIM] Validation tool updates monitored resources 
The validation tool now updates monitored resources. This is needed
because repair/migration may update these pre-existing resources, such
as by adding provided/consumed contracts. Since these start out as
copies of the existing resources (fixed for common Tenant), only the
required changes should be applied. An existing UT now clears
contracts on a pre-existing ExternalNetwork to test that these are
properly updated. Also, when creating common Tenant in AIM, set its
display name to an empty string instead of 'CommonTenant'.

README.rst

Group Based Policy (GBP) provides declarative abstractions for achieving scalable intent-based infrastructure automation.

GBP complements the OpenStack networking model with the notion of policies that can be applied between groups of network endpoints. As users look beyond basic connectivity, richer network services with diverse implementations and network properties are naturally expressed as policies. Examples include service chaining, QoS, path properties, access control, etc.

GBP allows application administrators to express their networking requirements using a Group and a Policy Rules-Set abstraction. The specifics of policy rendering are left to the underlying pluggable policy driver.

GBP model also supports a redirect operation that makes it easy to abstract and consume complex network service chains and graphs.

Checkout the GBP wiki page for more detailed information: <https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/GroupBasedPolicy>

The latest code is available at: <http://git.openstack.org/cgit/openstack/group-based-policy>.

GBP project management (blueprints, bugs) is done via Launchpad: <https://launchpad.net/group-based-policy>
