Hi All, I noticed the nova DB has reservations table with an expire field (+24h) and a periodic task in the scheduler (60 sec) for expire the otherwise not deleted records [2]. Both the table and the observed operations are strange. What this table and its operations are trying to solve ? Why does it needed ? Why this solution was chosen ?
