Description RHOS Integration 2013-12-12 13:29:26 UTC
Cloned from launchpad blueprint https://blueprints.launchpad.net/nova/+spec/server-count-for-nova-flavors.

Description:

Currently Nova Flavors (Instance Types) API does not provide information regarding instance count used by flavors. Adding the instance count to the current list of flavors and flavors details APIs would facilitate Cloud Administrators/Users to make intelligent decision before modifying or deleting a given flavor. It can also be used for metrics data to evaluate system resources usage. Adding support to prevent cloud users from deleting flavors referenced by servers and enhance error handling would help Cloud administrators manage flavors and root cause issues quickly.
