Re: [Openstack-operators] Need feedback for nova aborting cold migration function

2018-05-02 Thread Flint WALRUS
As an operator dealing with platforms that do cold migration I would like to be able to abort and rollback the process. That would give us a better service quality and availability. We do have no choices but to use cold migration on some of our remote sites as they don’t get a unified storage suc

Thanks Tim, pre-emptible instances are definitely of interest too. I'll be in Vancouver, hope to meet up at some point. And thanks Mathieu for sharing the code, if we build anything of wider interest I'll try to get it shared. Cheers, Dave -- ** Dave Holland ** Systems Support -- Informatics Sys

The baremetal scheduling options were deprecated in Pike [1] and the ironic_host_manager was deprecated in Queens [2] and is now being removed [3]. Deployments must use resource classes now for baremetal scheduling. [4] The large host subset size value is also no longer needed. [5] I've gone
