[Bug 1436314] Re: Option to boot VM only from volume is not available

 

@Soumit

I tried on my local env by setting 'max_local_block_devices' to 0 in
nova.conf and gets below error in Tempest.

ERROR (BadRequest): Block Device Mapping is Invalid: You specified more
local devices than the limit allows (HTTP 400) (Request-ID: req-
3ef100c7-b5c5-4a2d-a5da-8344726336e2)

Can you please let us know is that all setting you do for making nova
boot from volume only. Also provide more information about its use cases
etc.
