[openstack-dev] [Nova][Cinder] Operations: adding new nodes in "disabled" state, allowed for test tenant only

Hi all,
enable_new_services in nova.conf seems to allow add new compute nodes in
disabled state:
https://github.com/openstack/nova/blob/master/nova/db/sqlalchemy/api.py#L507-L508,
so it would allow to check everything first, before allowing production
workloads host a VM on it. I've filed a bug to Fuel to use this by default
when we scale up the env (add more computes) [1].

A few questions:

   1. can we somehow enable compute service for test tenant first? So cloud
   administrator would be able to run test VMs on the node, and after ensuring
   that everything is fine - to enable service for all tenants
   2. What about Cinder? Is there a similar option / ability?
   3. What about other OpenStack projects?

What is your opinion, how we should approach the problem (if there is a
problem)?
