I completely agree that given a choice between the two, a graceful adjustment (perhaps with guarantees on the Nova side so the provider can confirm deletion of oldest instances at some time window after the quota drop) would be preferable over something that just deletes random instances and hides the effective lower quota we end up at. -- Jeremy Stanley _______________________________________________ OpenStack-Infra mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-infra
