Whiteboard

As we are considering base OS as Ubuntu 16.04, most of the existing docker files and playbooks will work. There may be few docker files which need changes. These changes may be related to few packages which are not available for ppc64le architecture. For such packages source installation need to done.
So, respective changes need to handled in few docker files.
