<p class="MsoNormal">I would like to gather some thoughts for fixing the issue <a href="https://bugs.launchpad.net/python-novaclient/+bug/1089299">

</span></span><![endif]>The documentation (<a href="http://api.openstack.org/api-ref.html">http://api.openstack.org/api-ref.html</a>) and the CLI help text (for flavor-create) suggests that only a unique integer value is acceptable as flavor identifier. However,
 a flavor can be created by specifying a non-integer identifier. Also, if the create flavor API is not provided with an identifier, it generates a UUID (alphanumeric) identifier. Does the documentation and help text need a relook?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoListParagraph" style="text-indent:-.25in;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1"><![if !supportLists]><span style="mso-list:Ignore">2.<span style="font:7.0pt "Times New Roman"">      
</span></span><![endif]>If alphanumeric identifiers are allowed, the CLI failure (for instance of flavor with non-integer and non-UUID identifier) on ‘show <instance-id>’ needs a fix?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Is fixing the CLI failure on ‘show’ command the correct fix for this issue?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Another related issue is the absence of an Update Flavor API. Due to this, what currently happens is when a user edits a flavor from the Dashboard, a new flavor gets created which has a UUID (and the original flavor ID is marked deleted).
 Are there any specific reasons for this behavior?<o:p></o:p></p>
