Matt Thompson 06708191d6 Install Guide Cleanup 
This commit does the following:

- sets all shell prompts in code-blocks to the root prompt
- uses shell-session code-block since the shell prompt was being
  treated as a comment
- links configure-aodh.rst in configure.rst (running tox was
  complaining that this file wasn't being linked anywhere)
- other minor cleanup

Availability zones

Multiple availability zones can be created to manage Block Storage storage hosts. Edit the /etc/openstack_deploy/openstack_user_config.yml and /etc/openstack_deploy/user_variables.yml files to set up availability zones.

  1. For each cinder storage host, configure the availability zone under the container_vars stanza:

    cinder_storage_availability_zone: CINDERAZ

    Replace CINDERAZ with a suitable name. For example cinderAZ_2

  2. If more than one availability zone is created, configure the default availability zone for all the hosts by creating a cinder_default_availability_zone in your /etc/openstack_deploy/user_variables.yml

    cinder_default_availability_zone: CINDERAZ_DEFAULT

    Replace CINDERAZ_DEFAULT with a suitable name. For example, cinderAZ_1. The default availability zone should be the same for all cinder hosts.

    If the cinder_default_availability_zone is not defined, the default variable will be used (nova). This could make horizon's volume creation fail.
