RETIRED, Common scheduler for OpenStack
Go to file
Brian Elliott a187d8885e Fix bugs in resource tracker and cleanup
Fixes bugs in resource tracker:
* Handle disk oversubscription
* Handle suspended/powered off instances

The usage model is changed to the old style that is
based on actual instance usage on a compute host.
(Not the current point in time of the hypervisor's
 reported host stats)

There is now a 'limits' filter property that can be passed from
the scheduler to the compute node to indicate that
oversubscription of resources is desired:

The 'limits' filter property is a dict with the following possible
keys:

* memory_mb - Specifies the memory ceiling for the compute node.
* disk_gb - Specifies the disk space ceiling for the compute node.
* vcpu - Specifies the max number of vcpus for the compute node.

There is also some general cleanup and additional unit tests in
an attempt to simplify down this function.

OpenStack Nova README

OpenStack Nova provides a cloud computing fabric controller, supporting a wide variety of virtualization technologies, including KVM, Xen, LXC, VMWare, and more. In addition to its native API, it includes compatibility with the commonly encountered Amazon EC2 and S3 APIs.

OpenStack Nova is distributed under the terms of the Apache License, Version 2.0. The full terms and conditions of this license are detailed in the LICENSE file.

Nova primarily consists of a set of Python daemons, though it requires and integrates with a number of native system components for databases, messaging and virtualization capabilities.

To keep updated with new developments in the OpenStack project follow @openstack on Twitter.

To learn how to deploy OpenStack Nova, consult the documentation available online at:

http://docs.openstack.org

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:

http://bugs.launchpad.net/nova

Developers wishing to work on the OpenStack Nova project should always base their work on the latest Nova code, available from the master GIT repository at:

http://github.com/openstack/nova

Developers should also join the discussion on the mailing list, at:

https://lists.launchpad.net/openstack/

Any new code must follow the development guidelines detailed in the HACKING.rst file, and pass all unit tests. Further developer focused documentation is available at:

http://nova.openstack.org/

Changes to OpenStack Nova should be submitted for review via the Gerrit tool, following the workflow documented at:
