The term role has became case sensitive since sphinx 3.0.1. It causes the following warnings and makes a check job fail. WARNING: term not in glossary: availability zone This patch fixes the issue. Change-Id: I1f993b503ef769da0950afa206d6ac4a54f903b4 Closes-Bug: #1872260

Availability Zone
|
|
Availability zones are a logical subdivision of cloud block storage,
|
|
compute and network services. They provide a way for cloud operators to
|
|
logically segment their compute based on arbitrary factors like
|
|
location (country, datacenter, rack), network layout and/or power
|
|
source.
|
|
|
|
For more information, refer to :doc:`/admin/aggregates`.

|
Boot From Volume
|
|
A server that is created with a
|
|
:doc:`Block Device Mapping </user/block-device-mapping>` with
|
|
``boot_index=0`` and ``destination_type=volume``. The root volume can
|
|
already exist when the server is created or be created by the compute
|
|
service as part of the server creation. Note that a server can have
|
|
volumes attached and not be boot-from-volume. A boot from volume server
|
|
has an empty ("") ``image`` parameter in ``GET /servers/{server_id}``
|
|
responses.

|
|
|
Cross-Cell Resize
|
|
A resize (or cold migrate) operation where the source and destination
|
|
compute hosts are mapped to different cells. By default, resize and
|
|
cold migrate operations occur within the same cell.
|
|
|
|
For more information, refer to
|
|
:doc:`/admin/configuration/cross-cell-resize`.
|
|
|
|
Host Aggregate
|
|
Host aggregates can be regarded as a mechanism to further partition an
|
|
:term:`Availability Zone`; while availability zones are visible to
|
|
users, host aggregates are only visible to administrators. Host
|
|
aggregates provide a mechanism to allow administrators to assign
|
|
key-value pairs to groups of machines. Each node can have multiple
|
|
aggregates, each aggregate can have multiple key-value pairs, and the
|
|
same key-value pair can be assigned to multiple aggregates.
|
|
|
|
For more information, refer to :doc:`/admin/aggregates`.
|
|
|
|
Same-Cell Resize
|
|
A resize (or cold migrate) operation where the source and destination
|
|
compute hosts are mapped to the same cell. Also commonly referred to
|
|
as "standard resize" or simply "resize". By default, resize and
|
|
cold migrate operations occur within the same cell.
|
