Hello,

I am following the steps in "OpenStack Install and Deploy – Red Hat Ubuntu" document to setup setup the controller node ( http://docs.openstack.org/trunk/openstack-compute/install/apt/content/installing-the-cloud-controller.html  ).  Do I need to install nova-compute on the controller node?  Maybe there is no harm, but my understanding is nova-volume needs to be installed on all Compute Nodes.  Is that right?   If so, in that case can I skip installing nova-compute on the Controller Node without any side effects.

Thank you,
Ahmed.
