[openstack-dev] [nova] Bug in documentation for host aggregates and availability zones?
Hi, I think I've found some bugs around host aggregates in the documentation, curious what people think. The docs at http://docs.openstack.org/trunk/config-reference/content/section_compute-scheduler.html#host-aggregates; contain this: nova aggregate-create name availability-zone Create a new aggregate named name in availability zone availability-zone. Returns the ID of the newly created aggregate. Hosts can be made available to multiple availability zones, but administrators should be careful when adding the host to a different host aggregate within the same availability zone and pay attention when using the aggregate-set-metadata and aggregate-update commands to avoid user confusion when they boot instances in different availability zones. An error occurs if you cannot add a particular host to an aggregate zone for which it is not intended. I'm pretty sure that there are multiple errors in there: 1) This command creates a new aggregate that is *exposed as* an availability zone. It doesn't create a new aggregate within an availability zone. [1] Because of that the idea of a different host aggregate within the same availability zone doesn't make any sense. 2) Hosts can be part of multiple host aggregates, they cannot be part of multiple availability zones.
