Dear all,

I've registered a new blueprint for nova-scheduler. The purpose of the blueprint is to propose a new scheduler that is based on policy:

   https://blueprints.launchpad.net/nova/+spec/policy-based-scheduler

With current Filter_Scheduler, admin cannot change his placement policy without restarting nova-scheduler. Neither can he define local policy for a group of resources (say, an aggregate), or a particular client. Thus we propose this scheduler to provide admin with the capability of defining/changing his placement policy in runtime. The placement policy can be global (concerning all resources), local (concerning a group of resources), or tenant-specific.

Please don't hesitate to contact us for discussion, all your comments are welcomed!

Best regards,
