Team, Current State: say there's a flag in nova.conf (debug=True), then --debug and --nodebug on the command line has no effect by design. Config file entry basically wins every time. There are 2 bugs, one against glance and one against nova-manage where people were surprised at this behavior. https://bugs.launchpad.net/oslo/+bug/1155347 https://bugs.launchpad.net/glance/+bug/1156877 Does anyone remember how things used to work in Folsom? (I won't ask how you would prefer it to work :) -- dims -- Davanum Srinivas :: http://davanum.wordpress.com
