Title: The limit of the flavor extra_spec (value) size is too short Status in OpenStack Compute (nova): Opinion Bug description: The maximum size of the flavor extra_spec value is 255 character [1], but this is not always enough. If I create a new flavor and I want to set the metadata, it is possible that there is not enough "space" (The metadata does not fit in the db record) E.g.: I change the metadata -in dashboard. I select all x86:[A-Z] opstions from CIM Processor Allocation Setting › Instruction Set Extension available metadata (They are longer than 255 character). When I want to save the changes, it does not allow this. (Error: Unable to edit the flavor extra specs and Error: Unable to update metadata) [1] : https://github.com/openstack/nova/blob/9c89e07d17b5eb441682e3b8fad8b270f37f7015/nova/db/sqlalchemy/api_models.py#L206 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bug/1630463/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~yahoo-eng-team Post to : yahoo-eng-team@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~yahoo-eng-team More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
