Description RHOS Integration 2013-12-12 14:17:07 UTC 
Cloned from launchpad blueprint https://blueprints.launchpad.net/nova/+spec/libvirt-memtune-for-instance.

Description:

Administrator should be control advanced memory management configuration like memory ballooning for each provisioned VM.
Using libvirt memtune, I'd like to provide API to configrure advanced memory management settings.

e.g.
Hard limit for memory : nova memtune <INSTANCE_UUID> --hard_limit 1024 
Soft limit for memory: nova memtune <INSTANCE_UUID> --soft_limit 1024
Swap hard limit for memory: nova memtune <INSTANCE_UUID> --swap_hard_limit 1024
