I am running openstack queens. When I fire up nova-compute, I see the following in my logs which indicates that nova-compute assumes I have a 15gb disk.
Final resource view: name=compute01.learningneutron.com phys_ram=11998MB used_ram=512MB phys_disk=15GB used_disk=0GB total_vcpus=16 used_vcpus=0 pci_stats=[]
However I do df, I see I have much more space than 15 gb.
How do I configure nova-compute to utilize this space? Do I need to set up cinder? All I want to do is to use the local filesystem.
Thanks. Ranga
Nova stores disk images on the Hypervisor in the directory specified by the instances_path directive in the configuration files, the default value is /var/lib/nova/instances.
Can you check what is the disk space allocated to this partition.
