Cloned from launchpad blueprint https://blueprints.launchpad.net/nova/+spec/mark-host-down. Description: New API call is needed to change the state of compute service "down" immediately. This allows usage of evacuate API without a delay. Also as external system will make sure host is down and no VMs left running, there will be no possibility to break shared storage or use same IPs again. Specification URL (additional information): http://specs.openstack.org/openstack/nova-specs/specs/liberty/approved/mark-host-down.html
Hi Fabio, How would you like to track the need to also update the agent(s) to take advantage of this API if it's available? Thanks, Steve
