Flavors
=========
Show and manage server flavors.
Flavors are a way to describe the basic dimensions of a server to be
created including how much ``cpu``, ``ram``, and ``disk space`` are
allocated to a server built with this flavor.
List Flavors
============
.. rest_method:: GET /flavors
Lists all flavors accessible to your project.

Create Flavor
=============
.. rest_method:: POST /flavors
Creates a flavor.
Creating a flavor is typically only available to administrators of a
cloud because this has implications for scheduling efficiently in the cloud.
.. note::
Flavors with special characters in the flavor ID, except the hyphen '-',
underscore '_', spaces and dots '.', are not permitted.
Flavor IDs are meant to be UUIDs. Serialized strings separated/grouped by "-"
represent the default flavor ID or UUID. eg: 01cc74d8-4816-4bef-835b-e36ff188c406.
Only for backward compatibility, an integer as a flavor ID is permitted.

Delete Flavor
=============
.. rest_method:: DELETE /flavors/{flavor_id}

existing servers is not recommended as it can cause incorrect data to
be returned to the user under some operations.
