[Bug 1580746] Re: Wrong Hypervisor is being returned QEMU instead of KVM

 

Changing the value has been discussed before, there are already some
older bugs for this. Changing the value in the API response would be a
breaking API change so would require more discussion than just a bug
fix.

Title:
  Wrong Hypervisor is being returned QEMU instead of KVM

Status in OpenStack Dashboard (Horizon):
  New
Status in OpenStack Compute (nova):
  Opinion

Bug description:
  nova.conf is configured with virt_type=kvm

  When running hypervisor-show XXX | grep hypervisor_type

  The result is always presented as QEMU

  >>> | hypervisor_type           | QEMU

  I gather that this is also the same is presented in Horizon on the
  Hypervisors tab.

  More information can be found in this thread

  http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-
  operators/2016-May/010310.html

  I think this is visible on each and every version of OpenStack.
