whether following variables fit for your purpose? guess you want to
override the value through boot command?

cfg.IntOpt("reboot_timeout",
               default=0,
               help="Automatically hard reboot an instance if it has been "
                    "stuck in a rebooting state longer than N seconds. "
                    "Set to 0 to disable."),
    cfg.IntOpt("instance_build_timeout",
               default=0,
               help="Amount of time in seconds an instance can be in BUILD
"
                    "before going into ERROR status."
                    "Set to 0 to disable."),

Best Regards!

Subject:	[openstack-dev] [nova] libvirt boot parameters



Hi all,
I need to add the option rebootTimeout when the instance boots.


If you use the qemu-kvm, boot parameter reboot-timeout allows  a virtual
machine to retry booting if no bootable device is found:

# qemu-kvm --boot reboot-timeout=1000

Ref:
https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/6-Beta/html-single/Virtualization_Host_Configuration_and_Guest_Installation_Guide/index.html


In Openstack a new boot parameter should be entered into Libvirt XML
attributes where required:

<bios rebootTimeout=5000 /> under the <os> in the libvirt.xml file.

My idea is to add an option to nova boot command changing  (nova API, nova
base,python-novaclient) but I would like to know what you think about that?


Thank you beforehand
Angelo
