Hi Eddie, One way to do this is to “shelve” the instance which will allow to use your PCI device for other instance. But you won’t be able to “unshelve” the previous instance until you delete or unshelve the newly created instance.
NOTE: Shelving will release all the resources associated to that instance if the config option shelved_offload_time is not -1. Thanks and Regards, Dinesh Bhor | App. Software Dev.

Hi everyone, I'm using OpenStack Mitaka (which deployed from Fuel 9.2) and doing GPU things. I got a problem is I need to delete current instance which contains GPU to release device if I want assign GPU to another new instance temperately. I'll got "No valid host was found" if I creating new instance contains GPU flavor without delete present instance, even the instance is shutdown. Is there any way that I just shutdown the instance rather than delete it to release GPU device? Many thanks, Eddie. ______________________________________________________________________ Disclaimer: This email and any attachments are sent in strictest confidence for the sole use of the addressee and may contain legally privileged, confidential, and proprietary data.
