Sorry Mārtiņš, my previous comment wasn't completely correct. 

I'm assuming that you're using Ceph as a cinder backend and using
instances with the root filesystem defined in a volume, so you want
to resize your instances without modify the size of the volume, just
modify RAM and vCPU, right?

In that case you can define several flavors with 0 GiB of disk size
and resize up and down your instances between these flavors, but not
with other flavors with a disk size greater than 0 GiB defined. 

Regards,

Alberto
