and has been through many review cycles since it was first posted in June. The change includes both V2 and V3 api changes.<o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal">The only remaining review comment at the point when it got hit by FF was whether it was appropriate for this change to introduce a secheduler/api.py layer rather than following the existing (and exceptional) process of calling the scheduler/rpcapi.py
methods directly. Since this is the first query to call (rather than cast) into the scheduler it seems to me a sensible abstraction to add, and makes the scheduler consistent with all other services in Nova.
<o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal">The change is low risk in that it only adds a new query path to the scheduler, and does not alter any existing code paths.<o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal">Thanks for the consideration,<o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal">Phil <o:p></o:p></p></div></div></div></span></body></html>
