resize

Based on the currently available code ( commit 114109dbf4094ae6b6333d41c84bebf6f85c4e48 – 2012-09-13) This is a deep dive into what happens (and where in the code) during a resize down (e.g., flavor 4 to flavor 2) with a Nova configuration that is backed by XenServer/XenAPI. Hopefully the methods used in Nova’s code will not change over time, and this guide will remain good starting point. Steps 1-6a are identical to my previous entry " Deep dive: OpenStack Nova Resize Up with XenAPI/Xenserver"....

Nova is the Compute engine of the OpenStack project. Based on the currently available code ( commit 114109dbf4094ae6b6333d41c84bebf6f85c4e48 - 2012-09-13) This is a deep dive into what happens (and where in the code) during a resize up (e.g., flavor 2 to flavor 4) with a Nova configuration that is backed by XenServer/XenAPI.
