Using ports with resource request

Starting from microversion 2.72 nova supports creating servers with neutron ports having resource request visible as a admin-only port attribute resource_request. For example a neutron port has resource request if it has a QoS minimum bandwidth rule attached. Deleting such servers or detaching such ports works since Stein version of nova without requiring any specific microversion.

However the following API operations are still not supported in nova:

  • Creating servers with neutron networks having QoS minimum bandwidth rule is not supported. The user needs to pre-create the port in that neutron network and create the server with the pre-created port.
  • Attaching Neutron ports and networks having QoS minimum bandwidth rule is not supported.
  • Moving (resizing, migrating, live-migrating, evacuating, unshelving after shelve offload) servers with ports having resource request is not yet supported.

See the admin guide <admin/port_with_resource_request.html> for administrative details.
