[Bug 779304] Re: Enhancement: add nova-manage instance_type alter

 

This is very old and a wishlist item. If someone else wants to bring
back the feature later they can.

Title:
  Enhancement: add nova-manage instance_type alter

Status in OpenStack Compute (Nova):
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Per my question (https://answers.launchpad.net/nova/+question/156423),
  I would like to enhance nova-manage instance_type (and flavor) to have
  an alter (or change/modify) command for changing the description of
  the instance types.

  Right now you have two options:
  1) Delete an instance type and create it with the new configuration (not bad but a little clunky)
  2) Hack the DB table directly (really not user friendly)

  This is not a major enhancement by any means, but would make managing
  instance types a bit more clear.  If I could get a bit of feedback and
  direction, I think this would be a great chance for me to get more
  familiar with the code and make a contribution back to OpenStack.
  What do you think?

  Cheers,
     Graham
