I found in my logs thigs like "<b>ssh root@node2 mkdir -p /var/lib/nova/instances/instances_dir"</b> when trying to resize a VM. Tomorrow i'll trying resizing with shared storage and i'll let you know. </div>

Why in the world is it necessary to move the instance to another compute node just to do a resize? It requires ssh between instances, makes the process *much* slower and also makes it way more error prone. I don't get it. This seems like a really convoluted way of handling resizes.</div>
