Description RHOS Integration 2013-12-12 14:04:11 UTC
Cloned from launchpad blueprint https://blueprints.launchpad.net/nova/+spec/config-vmware-base.

Description:

Add a config parameter which will be the location where the image cache will reside rather that just using the 1st datastore

cfg.StrOpt('base_dir_name',
default='_base',
help="Where cached images are stored under $instances_path."
"This is NOT the full path - just a folder name."
"For per-compute-host cached images, set to _base_$my_ip"),

cfg.StrOpt('image_info_filename_pattern',
default='$instances_path/$base_dir_name/%(image)s.info',
help='Allows image information files to be stored in '
'non-standard locations'),

cfg.StrOpt('image_info_filename_pattern',
default='$instances_path/$base_dir_name/%(image)s.info',
help='Allows image information files to be stored in '
'non-standard locations'),
