Mike, I'll try to describe the reservation process for the virtual reservations. I'll use Nova project as an example. As I said, this Nova workflow is only the example that may and certainly will be modified for other 'virtual' projects. 1) User goes to Nova via CLI/Dashboard and commits all

Thanks, Dina. Yes, we do not understand each other; can I ask some more questions? You outlined a two-step reservation process (We assume the following reservation process for the OpenStack services...), and right after that talked about changing your mind to use Heat instead of individual
