<div dir="ltr"><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:verdana,sans-serif">Thanks for the reply. What is noticed is that if no --ephemeral option is specified with nova boot, and the flavor contains an ephemeral disk, nova will just create an ephemeral disk using the default size in the flavor, called disk.local.</div>

<font face="verdana, sans-serif">If you have a flavor, which contains an ephemeral disk, usually when you create an instance with it, disk.local is created. But what happens if you use that flavor and also use the --ephemeral option in nova boot, e.g. nova boot --flavor <flavor> --image <image> --ephemeral size=2 test123. Is disk.local suppose to still be created, as well as the extra ephemeral disk you specified?</font><br>
