The main reason I recall the suggestion coming up is that, due to IPv4 address starvation in some provider regions, nova boot was taking an hour or more to return waiting for an IP address to be assigned. Using nova rebuild would have supposedly avoided the address churn and thus improved instance turnaround for us. There may also have been other reasons for recommending rebuild to us, but if so I don't recall what they were. -- Jeremy Stanley __________________________________________________________________________ OpenStack Development Mailing List (not for usage questions) Unsubscribe: openstack-dev-requ...@lists.openstack.org?subject:unsubscribe http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-dev
