Description of problem: I am following the instructions in section 7.6 of official deployment guide. Following command is failing to to scale the overcloud: $ openstack overcloud deploy --templates --compute-scale 2 After I execute this command controllers go into ERROR state. Steps to Reproduce: 1- Create an overcloud with following command: $ openstack overcloud deploy --templates --control-scale 3 --compute-scale 1 --control-flavor control --compute-flavor compute --ntp-server pool.ntp.org 2- Once the overcloud has been deployed use the following command to scale: $ openstack overcloud deploy --templates --compute-scale 2 Actual results: Failed deployment. Expected results: Overcloud should scale. In my case it should go from 1 compute nodes to 2 computes nodes. Additional info: If I use the following command to scale the overcloud it works: openstack overcloud deploy --templates --control-scale 3 --compute-scale 2 --control-flavor control --compute-flavor compute --ntp-server pool.ntp.org Is it a documentation bug? Also, I don't want to update the controller while scaling is there a way to do it?

You'll need to use the exact same deployment command on the second deployment, only changing the value of the compute scale for this to work.
Once you've done the above, will you let us know if you are still running into issues?
