Hello,

We don't ship with an opendaylight group by default in the integrated repo.
Two choices:
- You deploy opendaylight on the side, and you point to it by having a user 
variable odl_ip for example.
- You add an extra group (where you want to have it!) using openstack-ansible 
inventory system.

For this you can either follow the documentation for manipulating the dynamic 
inventory, or you can ship your own static inventory to complement the dynamic 
inventory.
For the former, you should read this [1].
For the latter, you can simply create an /etc/openstack_deploy/inventory.ini 
file, like a regular ansible ini inventory.

Hope it helps.
