[Openstack] nova boot --ephemeral usage

Hi everyone,

I have a usage question about the --ephemeral option in nova boot:

If you have a flavor, which contains an ephemeral disk, usually when you
create an instance with it, disk.local is created.  But what happens if you
use that flavor and also use the --ephemeral option in nova boot, e.g. nova
boot --flavor <flavor> --image <image> --ephemeral size=2 test123.  Is
disk.local suppose to still be created, as well as the extra ephemeral disk
you specified?

Thank you in advance,
Thang
