This isn't really an area that HardwareProvisioning covers. It looks like nova has been involved with the upstream bug and is aware of the problem. Sending this to Compute DFG. This is a mistake in openstackclient. While nova did allow non-boolean values in the past, this was only for use with a never-merged feature for the XenAPI driver used by Rackspace and support was removed when API 2.1 was added way back in OSP7 or so. Since the problem described in this bug report should be resolved in a recent advisory, it has been closed with a resolution of ERRATA. For information on the advisory (Release of components for Red Hat OpenStack Platform 17.0 (Wallaby)), and where to find the updated files, follow the link below.

Description of problem: The help of "openstack server create" says that --config-drive option accepts a volume. ~~~ (overcloud) [stack@undercloud-0 ~]$ openstack server create -h usage: openstack server create [-h] [-f {json,shell,table,value,yaml}] : --config-drive <config-drive-volume>|True Use specified volume as the config drive, or 'True' to use an ephemeral drive ~~~ However, it fails when a non-boolean value is specified like this. ~~~ (overcloud) [stack@undercloud-0 ~]$ openstack server create --config-drive testvol1 --flavor m1.nano --image cirros-0.4.0-x86_64-disk.img "testvm1" Invalid input for field/attribute config_drive. Value: testvol1. 'testvol1' is not one of [True, 'True', 'TRUE', 'true', '1', 'ON', 'On', 'on', 'YES', 'Yes', 'yes', False, 'False', 'FALSE', 'false', '0', 'OFF', 'Off', 'off', 'NO', 'No', 'no'] (HTTP 400) (Request-ID: req-UUID) ~~~ Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): * RHOSP13 * RHOSP16 How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. Specify a non-boolean value to the --config-drive option for `openstack server create` command Actual results: An error occurs. Expected results: The help message should be updated like this because it's not implemented in nova-api: ~~~ --config-drive True 'True' to use an ephemeral drive ~~~ Additional info: According to the nova-api doc, it only accepts a boolean value. https://docs.openstack.org/api-ref/compute/?expanded=create-server-detail#id11 ~~~ config_drive (Optional) body boolean Indicates whether a config drive enables metadata injection. The config_drive setting provides information about a drive that the instance can mount at boot time. The instance reads files from the drive to get information that is normally available through the metadata service. This metadata is different from the user data. Not all cloud providers enable the config_drive. Read more in the OpenStack End User Guide. ~~~
