Hi all,<br>
I need to add the option rebootTimeout when the instance boots.<br>

In Openstack a new boot parameter should be entered into Libvirt XML
attributes where required:<br>
<tt><span style="font-size: 11pt; color: rgb(31, 73, 125);"
lang="EN-US"><br>
</span></tt><span style="font-size: 11pt; color: rgb(31, 73,
125);" lang="EN-US"></span><span style="font-size: 11pt;"
lang="EN-US"><bios rebootTimeout=5000 /> under the
<os> in the libvirt.xml file.</span><br>
<br>
My idea is to add an option to nova boot command changing (nova
API, nova base,python-novaclient) but I would like to know what you
think about that? <br>
<br>
Thank you beforehand<br>
