I changed disk_allocation_ratio to 2.0 in the config file and it had no effect on the existing resource provider.  I assume that is because I had initially deployed with it unset, so I got 1.0, and when I later wanted to change it the provider already existed with the default value.

Yeah I think so, unless the inventory changes we don't mess with changing the allocation ratio.

That makes sense. It would be nice if it were more explicitly stated in the option help, but I guess Jay's spec below would obsolete that behavior so maybe it's better to just pursue that.


  So in the past I could do the following:

1) Change disk_allocation_ratio in nova.conf
2) Restart nova-scheduler and/or nova-compute

Now it seems like I need to do:

1) Change disk_allocation_ratio in nova.conf
2) Restart nova-scheduler, nova-compute, and nova-placement (or some subset of those?)

Restarting the placement service wouldn't have any effect here.

Wouldn't I need to restart it if I wanted new resource providers to use the new default?


3) Use osc-placement to fix up the ratios on any existing resource providers

Yeah that's what you'd need to do in this case.

I believe Jay Pipes might have somewhere between 3 and 10 specs for the allocation ratio / nova conf / placement inventory / aggregates problems floating around, so he's probably best to weigh in here. Like: https://review.openstack.org/#/c/552105/
