hi Mike
One questions:
Currently, we can specify --master-count --node-count when creating a
bay, so how will that work if you have defined the nodes count in baymodel?
I think we need some rethinking here.

The magnum baymode.py will parse this dictionary and pass them to the heat template parameters minion_flavor_map, minion_flavor_count_map. Then the heat stack will work well.
