[Bug 1192749] Re: Cannot create over 1000 VM due to previous VM deletion

 

i think this is not a bug but just a configuration issue.
There is a parameter to check the max number of items returned, something like that:
osapi_opts = [
    cfg.IntOpt('osapi_max_limit',
               default=1000,
               help='the maximum number of items returned in a single '
                    'response from a collection resource'),

Can you check in your configuration if you have this parameter ?

Title:
  Cannot create over 1000 VM due to previous VM deletion

Status in OpenStack Compute (Nova):
  Invalid

Bug description:
  The system currently has 1000 active VM.  When I create the 1001 VM
  the oldest VM 1 gets deleted without warning.  I'm not sure if it is
  still running on the compute/volume node but I cannot find it using
  'nova show stca-00044'.  I have checked the quota for enough resources
  but then if the quota was exceeded for any of the resources (i.e
  vcpu/memory/etc) there would have been an error.  In this case the new
  1001 VM becomes active and 1 VM is not longer accessible.   The system
  will always stay at 1000vm due to this and cannot be exceeded.

  This setup was configured using Cisco Openstack Edition Folsom-multinode.  
  Link to configuration documentation: http://docwiki.cisco.com/wiki/OpenStack:Folsom

  The setup contains 1 control/network node and 43 compute/volume nodes.

  
  Here is an example:
