Include keystone configuration options in the Identity section. There is room for lots of improvements, but this first step will at least make the info available. Replace "Identity Service" with "Identity service" in the config-ref. Closes-Bug: #1277330 Change-Id: I2dfac169c89bdbecd67322923a6a84f2155c4150

<para>The OpenStack Compute service is a cloud computing fabric
|
|
controller, which is the main part of an IaaS system. You can use
|
|
OpenStack Compute to host and manage cloud computing systems. This

section describes the OpenStack Compute configuration
|
|
options.</para>
|
|
<para>To configure your Compute installation, you must define
|

configuration options in these files:</para>

<para><filename>nova.conf</filename>. Contains most of the

<para>You can use <filename>nova.conf</filename> file to configure

where Compute logs events, the level of logging, and log

formats.</para>
|

<para>To customize log formats for OpenStack Compute, use the

<title>Configure authentication and authorization</title>

<para>There are different methods of authentication for the

OpenStack Compute project, including no authentication. The

preferred system is the OpenStack Identity service, code-named

Keystone.</para>

<title>Configure resize</title>
|
|
<para>Resize (or Server resize) is the ability to change the
|
|
flavor of a server, thus allowing it to upscale or downscale
|
|
according to user needs. For this feature to work properly, you
|
|
might need to configure some underlying virt layers.</para>
|
|
<section xml:id="kvm-resize">
|
|
<title>KVM</title>
|
|
<para>Resize on KVM is implemented currently by transferring the
|
|
images between compute nodes over ssh. For KVM you need
|
|
hostnames to resolve properly and passwordless ssh access
|
|
between your compute hosts. Direct access from one compute
|
|
host to another is needed to copy the VM file across.</para>
|
|
<para>Cloud end users can find out how to resize a server by
|
|
reading the <link

<section xml:id="xenserver-resize">

<title>XenServer</title>
|
|
<para>To get resize to work with XenServer (and XCP), you need
|
|
to establish a root trust between all hypervisor nodes and
|
|
provide an /image mount point to your hypervisors dom0.</para>
