+Installation
+^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Requirements
+------------
+
+ .. container:: paragraph
+
+ Distribution is 100% written in Java and runs on any platform
+ that supports a JVM, e.g. Windows, Unix, Cygwin.
+
+Installation Requirements
+#########################
+
+ .. container:: ulist
+
+ - Downloaded distribution: JAVA runtime environment
+ (JRE, Java 8 or later, Distribution is tested with the
+ OpenJDK)
+
+ - Building from source: JAVA development kit (JDK,
+ Java 8 or later, Distribution is tested with the OpenJDK)
+
+ - Sufficient rights to install Distribution on the system
+
+ - Installation tools
+
+ .. container:: ulist
+
+ - TAR and GZ to extract from that TAR.GZ
+ distribution
+
+ .. container:: ulist
+
+ - Windows for instance
+ `7Zip <http://www.7-zip.org/>`__
+
+ - `Docker <https://www.docker.com/>`__ to run Distribution
+ inside a Docker container
+
+
+Build (Install from Source) Requirements
+########################################
+
+ .. container:: paragraph
+
+ Installation from source requires a few development
+ tools
+
+ .. container:: ulist
+
+ - GIT to retrieve the source code
+
+ - Java SDK, Java version 8 or later
+
+ - Apache Maven 3 (the Distribution build environment)
+
+Get the Distribution Source Code
+--------------------------------
+
+ .. container:: paragraph
+
+ The Distribution source code is hosted in ONAP as project distribution.
+ The current stable version is in the master branch.
+ Simply clone the master branch from ONAP using HTTPS.
+
+ .. container:: listingblock
+
+ .. container:: content
+
+ .. code:: text
+
+ git clone https://gerrit.onap.org/r/policy/distribution
+
+Build Distribution
+------------------
+
+ .. container:: paragraph
+
+ The examples in this document assume that the distribution source
+ repositories are cloned to:
+
+ .. container:: ulist
+
+ - Unix, Cygwin: ``/usr/local/src/distribution``
+
+ - Windows: ``C:\dev\distribution``
+
+ - Cygwin: ``/cygdrive/c/dev/distribution``
+
+ .. important::
+ A Build requires ONAP Nexus
+ Distribution has a dependency to ONAP parent projects. You might need to adjust your Maven M2 settings. The most current
+ settings can be found in the ONAP oparent repo: `Settings <https://git.onap.org/oparent/plain/settings.xml>`__.
+
+ .. important::
+ A Build needs Space
+ Building distribution requires approximately 1-2 GB of hard disc space, 100 MB for the actual build with full
+ distribution and around 1 GB for the downloaded dependencies.
+
+ .. important::
+ A Build requires Internet (for first build)
+ During the build, several (a lot) of Maven dependencies will be downloaded and stored in the configured local Maven
+ repository. The first standard build (and any first specific build) requires Internet access to download those
+ dependencies.
+
+ .. container:: paragraph
+
+ Use Maven for a standard build without any tests.

+ The build takes 2-3 minutes on a standard development laptop. It
+ should run through without errors, but with a lot of messages from
+ the build process.

+Install Distribution
+--------------------
+
+ .. container:: paragraph
+
+ Distribution can be installed in different ways:
+
+ .. container:: ulist
+
+ - Windows, Unix, Cygwin: manually from a ``.tar.gz`` archive
+
+ - Windows, Unix, Cygwin: build from source using Maven, then
+ install manually
+
+Install Manually from Archive (Windows, 7Zip, GUI)
+##################################################
+
+ .. container:: paragraph
+
+ Download a ``tar.gz`` archive and copy the file into the install
+ folder (in this example ``C:\distribution``). Assuming you are using 7Zip,
+ right click on the file and extract the ``tar`` archive.
+
+|
+
+ .. container:: content
+
+ Extract the TAR archive
+
+ .. container:: paragraph
+
+ The right-click on the new created TAR file and extract the actual
+ distribution.
+
+|
+
+ .. container:: content
+
+ Extract the distribution
+
+ .. container:: paragraph
+
+ Inside the new distribution folder you see the main directories: ``bin``,
+ ``etc``and ``lib``
+
+|
+
+ .. container:: paragraph
+
+ Once extracted, please rename the created folder to
+ ``distribution-full-2.0.2-SNAPSHOT``. This will keep the directory name in
+ line with the rest of this documentation.
+
+Build from Source
+-----------------
+
+Build and Install Manually (Unix, Windows, Cygwin)
+##################################################
+
+ .. container:: paragraph
+
+ Clone the Distribution GIT repositories into a directory. Go to that
+ directory. Use Maven to build Distribution (all details on building
+ Distribution from source can be found in *Distribution HowTo: Build*).
+
+ .. container:: paragraph
+
+ Now, take the ``.tar.gz`` file and install distribution.
+
+Installation Layout
+-------------------
+
+ .. container:: paragraph
+
+ A full installation of distribution comes with the following layout.
+
+ .. container:: listingblock
+
+ .. container:: content
+
+ - bin
+ - etc
+ - lib
+
+Running Distribution in Docker
+------------------------------
+
+Run in ONAP
+###########
+
+ .. container:: paragraph
+
+ Running distribution from the ONAP docker repository only requires 2
+ commands:
+
+ .. container:: olist arabic
+
+ #. Log into the ONAP docker repo
+
+ .. container:: listingblock
+
+ .. container:: content
+
+ ::
+
+ docker login -u docker -p docker nexus3.onap.org:10003
+
+ .. container:: olist arabic
+
+ #. Run the distribution docker image
+
+ .. container:: listingblock
+
+ .. container:: content
+
+ ::
+
+ docker run -it --rm nexus3.onap.org:10003/onap/policy-distribution:latest
+
+Build a Docker Image
+####################
+
+ .. container:: paragraph
+
+ Alternatively, one can use the Dockerfile defined in the Docker
+ package to build an image.
+
+Distribution Configurations Explained
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Introduction to Distribution Configuration
+------------------------------------------
+
+ .. container:: paragraph
+
+ A distribution engine can be configured to use various combinations
+ of policy reception handlers, policy decoders and policy forwarders.
+ The system is build using a plugin architecture. Each configuration
+ option is realized by a plugin, which can be loaded and
+ configured when the engine is started. New plugins can be
+ added to the system at any time, though to benefit from a
+ new plugin an engine will need to be restarted.
+
+ |
+
+ .. container:: paragraph
+
+ The distribution already comes with sdc reception handler,
+ file reception handler, xacml policy decoder, file in csar policy decoder,
+ xacml policy forwarder, apex policy forwarder.
+
+General Configuration Format
+----------------------------
+
+ .. container:: paragraph
+
+ The distribution configuration file is a JSON file containing a few
+ main blocks for different parts of the configuration. Each
+ block then holds the configuration details. The following
+ code shows the main blocks:
+
+ .. container:: listingblock
+
+ .. container:: content
+
+ .. code:: text
+
+ {
+ "restServerParameters":{
+ ... (1)
+ },
+ "receptionHandlerParameters":{ (2)
+ "pluginHandlerParameters":{ (3)
+ "policyDecoders":{...}, (4)
+ "policyForwarders":{...} (5)
+ }
+ },
+ "receptionHandlerConfigurationParameters":{
+ ... (6)
+ }
+ ,
+ "policyForwarderConfigurationParameters":{
+ ... (7)
+ }
+ ,
+ "policyDecoderConfigurationParameters":{
+ ... (8)
+ }
+ }
+

+The Distribution Engine
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+ .. container:: paragraph
+
+ The Distribution engine can be started using ``policy-dist.sh`` script.
+ The script is located in the source code at
+ *distribution/packages/policy-distribution-docker/src/main/docker*
+ directory
+
+ |
+
+ .. container:: paragraph
+
+ On UNIX and Cygwin systems use ``policy-dist.sh`` script.
+
+ |
+
+ .. container:: paragraph
+
+ On Windows systems navigate to the distribution installation directory.
+ Run the following command
+ ``java -cp "etc:lib\*" org.onap.policy.distribution.main.startstop.Main -c <config-file-path>``
+
+ |
+
+ .. container:: paragraph
+
+ The Distribution engine comes with CLI arguments for setting
+ configuration. The configuration file is always required.
+ The option ``-h`` prints a help screen.
+
+ .. container:: listingblock
+
+ .. container:: content
+
+ .. code:: text

+ -h,--help outputs the usage of this command
+ -v,--version outputs the version of distribution system
+
+
+The Distribution REST End-points
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+ .. container:: paragraph
+
+ The distribution engine comes with built-in REST based
