Hi,
I've been trying out the 5.11 version connected to OpenStack and have run into a small issue.
We don't provision any storage locally on our compute hosts, instead preferring to boot from volume all our instances. We normally do this either by selecting the option in Horizon or providing the "dest=volume" option in our calls to Nova.
I've had a look around and I've been unable to find anywhere in Scalr that we can define this as an option (there also seems to be a lack of making this the default in OpenStack too). In the "Storage" section on the farms it states this "Root device configuration is not available for this Farm Role (the root device may not be a volume)" however in this case, with dest=volume that is not true and I would have thought we should be able to configure that.
I have tried adding another volume in storage and optimistically telling it to use / for the mount but that failed (as you'd expect).
I'm not adverse to adjusting the call it makes to Nova as this is the default for us, if that's an option.
Thanks,
Alex
