<font face="Times New Roman" size="3">Seems that this can be broken into
3 incremental pieces. First, would be great if the ability to schedule
a single 'evacuate' would be finally merged (</font><a href="https://blueprints.launchpad.net/nova/+spec/find-host-and-evacuate-instance" target="_blank"><font color="blue" face="Times New Roman" size="3"><u>https://blueprints.launchpad.net/nova/+spec/find-host-and-evacuate-instance</u></font></a><font face="Times New Roman" size="3">).
Then, it would make sense to have the logic that evacuates an entire host
(</font><a href="https://blueprints.launchpad.net/python-novaclient/+spec/find-and-evacuate-host" target="_blank"><font color="blue" face="Times New Roman" size="3"><u>https://blueprints.launchpad.net/python-novaclient/+spec/find-and-evacuate-host</u></font></a><font face="Times New Roman" size="3">).
The reasoning behind suggesting that this should not necessarily be in
Nova is, perhaps, that it *can* be implemented outside Nova using the indvidual
'evacuate' API. Finally, it should be possible to close the loop and invoke
the evacuation automatically as a result of a failure detection (not clear
how exactly this would work, though). Hopefully we will have at least the
first part merged soon (not sure if anyone is actively working on a rebase).</font>

<br><font size="3">I am also very much curious about this. Earlier this bp
had a dependency on query scheduler, which is now merged. It will be very

However, the comments there seem to indicate that the code that orchestrates
the evacuation shouldn't go into nova (referencing the Havana design summit).<br>
<br>
Why wouldn't this type of behaviour belong in nova?  (Is there a summary
of discussions at the summit?)  Is there a recommended place where
this sort of thing should go?<br>
