 I just tried - when I reboot Compute Nodes, all VM located there will
 switch to Shut down state. And will not be power on automatically.
 Hard reset will power them on. However I am afraid that
 cloud-perstisten.yml will not handle it. When the machine is not
 unreachable it will spin up new one.

Yeah, it would need a way to look for 'shutdown' and hard power it on.
Might be doable. 

 Cold migration works. I tested it yesterday on our instance and it is
 functional.

ok.

 I think it might be a good idea to have some swift space setup, but I

 This would also be backed by the equalogics? Or would it be
 distributed on the nodes?

Swift have built-in split/replica mechanism. So I think that with this size, I 
can steal some space from vg_server of nodes.

 Are there specific cases where live migrations would help us out a lot?

I do not know. Cold migration last several minutes. I agree that we can afford 
it. We are not bank or stock operator
where every outage cost pile of money.

Yeah. Or perhaps somewhat bigger would make sense? 500G?
