[Bug 1274169] [NEW] Nova libvirt driver uses the "instance type ID" instead the "flavor ID" when creating instances - problematic with cells

 

Public bug reported:

For flavors in cells is needed to create the same flavor manually in all
available cells using nova API. If for some reason we need to delete a
flavor in a cell the “instance_types” tables will then be out of sync
(different IDs for flavors).

This blocks the instance creation using the libvirt driver because then
the "instance type ID" for the flavor in the top cell will be different
in the Child.

I would expect that nova use the “flavor ID” that is defined by the
admin instead the "instance type ID".
