Hi Daniel thanks for your feedback. After reading up a little more http://docs.openstack.org/openstack-ops/content/scaling.html#segragation_methods I now understand your original suggestion.
I believe that if the operator associates the aggregate directly to the flavor As you suggested that yes this will cover my use case too as the tenant is selecting availability zones Not host aggregates. Sorry I had misconstrued the relationship between availability zones and host aggregates. I believed that there was a one to one mapping ,so when you select an availability zone you were Selecting the host aggregate directly. Regards Sean. > -----Original Message----- > From: Daniel P.
