http://docs.openstack.org/trunk/openstack-compute/install/apt/content/installing-the-cloud-controller.html</a> ). Do I need to install nova-compute on the controller node? Maybe there is no harm, but my understanding is nova-volume needs to be installed
on all Compute Nodes. Is that right? If so, in that case can I skip installing nova-compute on the Controller Node without any side effects.</div><div><br></div><div>Thank you,</div><div>Ahmed.</div><div> </div></div></div></blockquote></span></body></html>
