+  ## Deploying DPDK requires enabling hugepages for the overcloud compute nodes.
+  ## It also requires enabling IOMMU when using the VFIO (vfio-pci) OvsDpdkDriverType.
+  ## This can be done using ComputeKernelArgs as shown below.

+    ## Attempting to deploy DPDK without appropriate values for the below parameters may lead to unstable deployments
+    ## due to CPU contention of DPDK PMD threads.
