[Yahoo-eng-team] [Bug 1485578] Re: It is not possible to select AZ for new Cinder volume during the VM creation
Comment #5 is exactly correct. You can't tell nova which cinder AZ to create a volume in if nova is creating the volume. If you need a specific AZ for the volume, you need to pre-create the volume in cinder and then provide that volume to nova during the server create request. It's the same issue with using a non-default volume type, you'd have to pre-create a volume and provide it to nova in that case. ** Changed in: nova Status: New => Invalid -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Yahoo!

[Yahoo-eng-team] [Bug 1485578] Re: It is not possible to select AZ for new Cinder volume during the VM creation
In my understanding, the only way is to create a volume in advance and then launch an instance with a precreated volume. When considering how to fix it, we need to care whether cross AZ attach is allowed or not. - In case of cross AZ attach is not allowed, a volume should be created with a same name as Nova AZ. - In case of cross AZ attach is allowed, we need to provide a way to specify a volume AZ.

This bug was last updated over 2 years ago, and the launch instance has been entirely re-written. Can you reproduce the error with a current release of horizon? If the issue still exists, please feel free to reopen it. ** Tags added: cinder ** Changed in: horizon Status: New => Invalid -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Yahoo!
