SYNOPSIS
========
nova-manage <category> <action> [<args>]
DESCRIPTION
===========
nova-manage controls cloud computing instances by managing nova users, nova projects, nova roles, shell selection, vpn connections, and floating IP address configuration. More information about OpenStack Nova is at http://nova.openstack.org.
OPTIONS
=======
The standard pattern for executing a nova-manage command is:
``nova-manage <category> <command> [<args>]``
For example, to obtain a list of all projects:
``nova-manage project list``
Run without arguments to see a list of available command categories:
``nova-manage``
Categories are user, project, role, shell, vpn, and floating. Detailed descriptions are below.
You can also run with a category argument such as user to see a list of all commands in that category:
``nova-manage user``
These sections describe the available categories and arguments for nova-manage.
Nova Db
~~~~~~~
``nova-manage db version``
Print the current database version.
``nova-manage db sync``
Sync the database up to the most recent version. This is the standard way to create the db as well.
Nova User
~~~~~~~~~
``nova-manage user admin <username>``
Create an admin user with the name <username>.
``nova-manage user create <username>``
Create a normal user with the name <username>.
``nova-manage user delete <username>``
Delete the user with the name <username>.
``nova-manage user exports <username>``
Outputs a list of access key and secret keys for user to the screen
``nova-manage user list``
Outputs a list of all the user names to the screen.
``nova-manage user modify <accesskey> <secretkey> <admin?T/F>``
Updates the indicated user keys, indicating with T or F if the user is an admin user. Leave any argument blank if you do not want to update it.
Nova Project
~~~~~~~~~~~~
``nova-manage project add <projectname>``
Add a nova project with the name <projectname> to the database.
``nova-manage project create <projectname>``
Create a new nova project with the name <projectname> (you still need to do nova-manage project add <projectname> to add it to the database).
``nova-manage project delete <projectname>``
Delete a nova project with the name <projectname>.
``nova-manage project environment <projectname> <username>``
Exports environment variables for the named project to a file named novarc.
``nova-manage project list``
Outputs a list of all the projects to the screen.
``nova-manage project quota <projectname>``
Outputs the size and specs of the project's instances including gigabytes, instances, floating IPs, volumes, and cores.
``nova-manage project remove <projectname>``
Deletes the project with the name <projectname>.
``nova-manage project zipfile``
Compresses all related files for a created project into a zip file nova.zip.
Nova Role
~~~~~~~~~
nova-manage role <action> [<argument>]
``nova-manage role add <username> <rolename> <(optional) projectname>``
Add a user to either a global or project-based role with the indicated <rolename> assigned to the named user. Role names can be one of the following five roles: cloudadmin, itsec, sysadmin, netadmin, developer. If you add the project name as the last argument then the role is assigned just for that project, otherwise the user is assigned the named role for all projects.
``nova-manage role has <username> <projectname>``
Checks the user or project and responds with True if the user has a global role with a particular project.
``nova-manage role remove <username> <rolename>``
Remove the indicated role from the user.
Nova Shell
~~~~~~~~~~
``nova-manage shell bpython``
Starts a new bpython shell.
``nova-manage shell ipython``
Starts a new ipython shell.
``nova-manage shell python``
Starts a new python shell.
``nova-manage shell run``
Starts a new shell using python.
``nova-manage shell script <path/scriptname>``
Runs the named script from the specified path with flags set.
Nova VPN
~~~~~~~~
``nova-manage vpn list``
Displays a list of projects, their IP prot numbers, and what state they're in.
``nova-manage vpn run <projectname>``
Starts the VPN for the named project.
``nova-manage vpn spawn``
Runs all VPNs.
Nova Floating IPs
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
``nova-manage floating create <ip_range> [--pool <pool>] [--interface <interface>]``
Creates floating IP addresses for the given range, optionally specifying
a floating pool and a network interface.
``nova-manage floating delete <ip_range>``
Deletes floating IP addresses in the range given.
``nova-manage floating list``
Displays a list of all floating IP addresses.
Nova Flavor
~~~~~~~~~~~
``nova-manage flavor list``
Outputs a list of all active flavors to the screen.
``nova-manage flavor list --all``
Outputs a list of all flavors (active and inactive) to the screen.
``nova-manage flavor create <name> <memory> <vCPU> <local_storage> <flavorID> <(optional) swap> <(optional) RXTX Quota> <(optional) RXTX Cap>``
creates a flavor with the following positional arguments:
* memory (expressed in megabytes)
* vcpu(s) (integer)
* local storage (expressed in gigabytes)
* flavorid (unique integer)
* swap space (expressed in megabytes, defaults to zero, optional)
* RXTX quotas (expressed in gigabytes, defaults to zero, optional)
* RXTX cap (expressed in gigabytes, defaults to zero, optional)
``nova-manage flavor delete <name>``
Delete the flavor with the name <name>. This marks the flavor as inactive and cannot be launched. However, the record stays in the database for archival and billing purposes.
``nova-manage flavor delete <name> --purge``
Purges the flavor with the name <name>. This removes this flavor from the database.
Nova Instance_type

``nova-manage image convert <directory>``
Converts all images in directory from the old (Bexar) format to the new format.
Nova VM
