"nova zone" and "availability_zone"

 

Hi all,

What is the difference between "nova zone(s)" and "availability_zone"?
In a new deployment, the *services* table in the nova db contains an
"availability_zone"
column (which is 'nova', but default).

If that is not the same as "nova zones"  (which are logical deployments, as
far as I understood), where is information
about zones stored?

The only documentation about "zones" in openstack that I could find is here:
http://nova.openstack.org/devref/zone.html


is there anything on availability zones?

Cheers,
/Nicolae.
