+1.

Or at least provide a way to specify an external UUID for the instance, and can retrieve the instance through the external UUID which may be linked to external system's object.

主题: [openstack-dev]  [nova] Create an instance with a custom uuid

Hello

I would like to be able to specify the UUID of an instance when I create
it. I found this discussion about this matter:
https://lists.launchpad.net/openstack/msg22387.html
but I could not find any blueprint, anyway I understood this
modification should not comport any particular issue.

Would it be acceptable to pass the uuid as metadata, or should I instead
modify the api if I want to set the UUID from the novaclient?

Best regards
