Hi,

I have the following scenario. I have an application consisting of
multiple VMs on different compute hosts. The admin puts one of the
hosts into maintenance mode (nova-manage service disable ...) because
there will  be some maintenance activity on that host in the near
future. Is there a way to  get a notification from Nova when a host
is put into maintenance mode? If it is not the case today would the
nova community support such an addition to Nova?

As a subsequent question is there a way for an external system to
listen to such a notification published on the message bus?

Hi Gibi!

I don't believe there is a notification currently sent when a service is
disabled. I agree this would be a good (and pretty easy) addition to Nova.

Please feel free to add a blueprint in Launchpad. I don't see this as needing a
full spec, really. It shouldn't be more than a few lines of code to send a new
notification message.

Wouldn't a new notification message count as an API change? Or are we saying that it's such a small API change that any discussion can happen in the blueprint?

(I'm trying to figure out how this relates to "http://docs.openstack.org/developer/nova/devref/kilo.blueprints.html"; which says that any API change requires a spec.)

Also, if the notification messages are considered part of the API, should they be versioned?

Chris
