Quotas for nonexistent projects

 

Hi!

I have noticed that project quotas in nova could be stored and retrieved even if the project doesn't exist. Indeed, nova database has no restrictions, and the quotas' table could store quotas for projects with arbitrary names even if there are no such projects in the projects' table.
Is it a bug or a feature?

For example, let us see quotas for nonexistent "fgh" project, set "cores" quota, verify that it is stored, and check that there is still no "fgh" project.

# nova-manage project quota fgh
metadata_items: 128
instances: 10
injected_file_content_bytes: 10240
injected_files: 5

gigabytes: 1000
cores: 20
ram: 51200
floating_ips: 10
# nova-manage project quota fgh cores 16
metadata_items: 128
