+Vitrage Sample Configuration File
+=================================
+
+Configure Vitrage by editing /etc/vitrage/vitrage.conf.
+
+No config file is provided with the source code, it will be created during the
+installation. In case where no configuration file was installed, one can be
+easily created by running::
+
+    oslo-config-generator \
+        --config-file=/etc/vitrage/vitrage-config-generator.conf \
+        --output-file=/etc/vitrage/vitrage.conf
+
+The following is a sample Vitrage configuration for adaptation and use. It is
+auto-generated from Vitrage when this documentation is built, and can also be
+viewed in `file form <../_static/vitrage.conf.sample>`_.
