These closely related features are the source of a disproportionate number of bugs and a large amount of confusion among users. The spread of information around multiple docs probably doesn't help matters. Do what we've already done for the metadata service and remote consoles and clean these docs up. There are a number of important changes: - All documentation related to host aggregates and availability zones is placed in one of three documents, '/user/availability-zones', '/admin/aggregates' and '/admin/availability-zones'. (note that there is no '/user/aggregates' document since this is not user-facing) - References to these features are updated to point to the new location - A glossary is added. Currently this only contains definitions for host aggregates and availability zones - nova CLI commands are replaced with their openstack CLI counterparts - Some gaps in related documentation are closed Change-Id: If847b0085dbfb4c813d4a8d14d99346f8252bc19 Signed-off-by: Stephen Finucane <sfinucan@redhat.com>

In the unfortunate event that bugs are discovered, they should be reported to the appropriate bug tracker. If you obtained the software from a 3rd party operating system vendor, it is often wise to use their own bug tracker for reporting problems. In all other cases use the master OpenStack bug tracker, available at:
