On many hypervisors (libvirt/kvm for example) this will be device vda. Do not create a duplicate mapping using –block-device-mapping for this volume.

--boot-from-volume <volume-size>¶: When used in conjunction with the --image or --image-property option, this option automatically creates a block device mapping with a boot index of 0 and tells the compute service to create a volume of the given size (in GB) from the specified image and use it as the root disk of the server. The root volume will not be deleted when the server is deleted. This option is mutually exclusive with the --volume and --snapshot options.

--auto-network¶: Automatically allocate a network to the server. This is the default network allocation policy. This is a wrapper for the ‘–nic auto’ option that provides a simple syntax for enabling automatic configuration of network connectivity for a new server. For more advanced use cases, refer to the ‘–nic’ parameter. (supported by –os-compute-api-version 2.37 or above)

--nic <net-id=net-uuid,port-id=port-uuid,v4-fixed-ip=ip-addr,v6-fixed-ip=ip-addr,tag=tag,auto,none>¶

--wait¶: Wait for build to complete

--trusted-image-cert <trusted-cert-id>¶: Trusted image certificate IDs used to validate certificates during the image signature verification process. May be specified multiple times to pass multiple trusted image certificate IDs. (supported by –os-compute-api-version 2.63 or above)

server evacuate¶

Evacuate a server to a different host.

This command is used to recreate a server after the host it was on has failed. It can only be used if the compute service that manages the server is down. This command should only be used by an admin after they have confirmed that the instance is not running on the failed host.

If the server instance was created with an ephemeral root disk on non-shared storage the server will be rebuilt using the original glance image preserving the ports and any attached data volumes.

If the server uses boot for volume or has its root disk on shared storage the root disk will be preserved and reused for the evacuated instance on the new host.

    [--password <password> | --shared-storage]
    <server>

    [--state <state>]
    [--description <description>]
    [--tag <tag>]
    [--hostname <hostname>]
    <server>

--name <new-name>¶: New server name

--password <PASSWORD>¶: Set the server password. This option requires cloud support.

--no-password¶: Clear the admin password for the server from the metadata service; note that this action does not actually change the server password

--property <key=value>¶: Property to add/change for this server (repeat option to set multiple properties)

--state <state>¶: New server state WARNING This can result in instances that are no longer usable and should be used with caution (admin only)

--tag <tag>¶: Tag for the server. Specify multiple times to add multiple tags. (supported by –os-compute-api-version 2.26 or above)

--hostname <hostname>¶: Hostname configured for the server in the metadata service. A separate utility running in the guest is required to propagate changes to this value to the guest OS itself. (supported by –os-compute-api-version 2.90 or above)

server¶: Server (name or ID)

server shelve¶

Shelve and optionally offload server(s).

Shelving a server creates a snapshot of the server and stores this snapshot before shutting down the server. This shelved server can then be offloaded or deleted from the host, freeing up remaining resources on the host, such as network interfaces. Shelved servers can be unshelved, restoring the server from the snapshot. Shelving is therefore useful where users wish to retain the UUID and IP of a server, without utilizing other resources or disks.

Most clouds are configured to automatically offload shelved servers immediately or after a small delay. For clouds where this is not configured, or where the delay is larger, offloading can be manually specified. This is an admin-only operation by default.

openstack server shelve [--offload] [--wait] <server> [<server> ...]

--offload¶: Remove the shelved server(s) from the host (admin only). Invoking this option on an unshelved server(s) will result in the server being shelved first

--wait¶: Wait for shelve and/or offload operation to complete

server¶: Server(s) to shelve (name or ID)
