[Bug 1477296] [NEW] docs: admin guide doesn't mention SSH settings for migration/resize

 

Public bug reported:

When doing a migration/resize to another host without having a shared
storage, the compute nodes need SSH access to each other[1], which is
not documented in the "admin guide" [2]. Right now one has to search for
blogs which describe how to solve this [3]. I think this should either
be documented in the OpenStack admin guide in the compute section or
there could be a solution where the SSH access to another compute host
is not necessary anymore.
