Hello Saverio,


I am wondering whats your actual use case.

As a public cloud user, you should never depend on the clouds version.

It should simply be stable and compatible any time.


Best regards


Ralf T.

Hello Jimmy,

thanks for your help. If I understand correctly the answer you linked,
that helps if you operate the cloud and you have access to the
servers. Then of course you can call nova-manage.

But being a user of a public cloud without having access the the
infrastructure servers ... how do you do that ?

thanks

Saverio
