I just work out a patch quickly for fixing this,

> Looks like we use API_MAX_VERSION and DEFAULT_OS_COMPUTE_API_VERSION with
> wrong way. This isn't broken with rackspace only, this broken novaclient
> runing with nova legacy v2 api(legacy v2 api's behavior is no version
> exposed).
>
> API_MAX_VERSION is the max version of client supported, currently it
> should be '2.5'
>
> DEFAULT_OS_COMPUTE_API_VERSION is the default value of CLI option of
> '--os-compute-api-version', ti should be '2.latest' which means let CLI to
> negotiate with server side choice most recently version.
>
> Not sure whether we need revert, but at least a new fix should come after
> that.

>> Hi everyone,
>>
>> We have an issue [1] in python-novaclient 2.32.0 where it's not working
>> with rackspace cloud.
>>
>> It's caused by a commit [2] that changed the default requested compute
>> API version from "latest" to "client supported latest", a specific version.
>> We have some logic in the discover_version method that does comparisons
>> between a user-specified version and the server version. For rackspace, we
>> get a "null" server version because the version list API isn't exposed. The
>> discover_version falls back on compute API 2.0 when requested version is
>> "latest" and server version is "null" but raises an error when requested
>> version is "user-specified" and server version is "null". So more work is
>> needed there to handle cases where version API isn't exposed.
>>
>> Should we revert [2] for now? Any other thoughts?
