From
http://docs.openstack.org/trunk/openstack-compute/install/apt/content/compute-verifying-install.html
:

You can find the version of the installation by using the
*nova-manage*command, as root:

# nova-manage version list

The version number 2012.2 corresponds with the Folsom release of Compute.

2012.2 (2012.1-LOCALBRANCH:LOCALREVISION)

Here's a table showing the release names corresponding to the version
numbers.

--force_hosts no longer available in Folsom. It was available in Essex.
There was a recent mailing list discussion about the use of policies to
enable non-admin users to use the availability-zone param:

This is how it works on Essex:

Hope this gets you on track.
