Public bug reported: In multi CPU architectures clouds, there is sometime the need of knowing the CPU architecture of an instance, i.e. to know if the instance supports live migration or not.
Right now architecture is only a property of glance image [0] To know the architecture of a VM using OpenStack API only, the only way is then to query the image and looks for the architecture property. If the image is gone from Glance, there is no way of retrieving this information from the API. It would be good if instance table will have an additional field to specify the CPU architecture of the VM and expose it via `openstack server show <uuid>` Links 0. https://docs.openstack.org/glance/latest/admin/useful-image- properties.html#image-property-keys-and-values ** Affects: nova Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Yahoo!
