[ops] How to enable Live Migrate option in instance dropdown in Horizon?
Precisely how do I enable a Live Migrate option in the instance dropdown menu in Horizon? I've been following the instructions at this link, but a Live Migrate option (or any migrate option at all) never appears in Horizon despite restarting nova-compute and the openstack dashboard service. We are using a libvirt VM-based implementation of Canonical Charmed OpenStack (Stein). Somewhere there's a trick or a detail that we are missing. https://docs.openstack.org/nova/victoria/admin/configuring-migrations.html#s... Thanks! Enjoy! John M.

live miragtion is adming only so it will never show up in teh normal instace drop down. you need to go to the admin section and find the instances under the compute section. that has the live migration drop down.
Thanks! Enjoy!

I'll assume the account you're working with is admin, and that you can do livemigration from the CLI. Perhaps share some of the Juju bundle you're using, settings for nova-compute should include enable-live-migration=true (in the charm config). If that's set, the settings should be in nova.conf already, and there should be no need to go edit by hand (the charms will likely roll back your changes anyway since they're templated).
