<p class="MsoNormal">This mail is regarding the flag “allow_resize_to_same_host=True” in nova.conf.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Currently Nova allows to resize the instance across different host by default and it provides the flag “allow_resize_to_same_host” to set to “True”, when resize is required to be tested in single host environment. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:black;background:white">But this flag could be useful in multi host environment, where cloud admin wants the resize to happen on the same host. To support this scenario, I have submitted a patch
<a href="https://review.openstack.org/#/c/117116/">https://review.openstack.org/#/c/117116/</a>.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:black;background:white"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:black;background:white">As part of this patch, reviewers suggested to use new variable called ‘force_resize_to_same_host’ instead. So Would like to get more reviews on this one.
