Compute API configuration
The Compute API, run by the nova-api daemon, is the
component of OpenStack Compute that receives and responds to user
requests, whether they be direct API calls, or via the CLI tools or
dashboard.
Configure Compute API password handling
The OpenStack Compute API enables users to specify an administrative password when they create or rebuild a server instance. If the user does not specify a password, a random password is generated and returned in the API response.
In practice, how the admin password is handled depends on the hypervisor in use and might require additional configuration of the instance. For example, you might have to install an agent to handle the password setting. If the hypervisor and instance configuration do not support setting a password at server create time, the password that is returned by the create API call is misleading because it was ignored.
To prevent this confusion, use the
enable_instance_password configuration option to disable
the return of the admin password for installations that do not support
setting instance passwords.
Configuration options
The Compute API configuration options are documented in the tables below.
