[Bug 1692491] [NEW] nova shows wrong RAM usage

 

Public bug reported:

If flavor has hw_video:ram_max_mb value, nova will add this value to the
project usage[1]. But when we delete this server, it seems we don't
cover this case. So we will always get wrong ram usage.

For example, we create a server with flavor f, whose ram is 1024 and
hw_video:ram_max_mb is 64, then we will compute quota usage as 1024 +
64, but when we delete this server, we only release 1024, rather than
1024 + 64. As a result, the usage may incremente constantly, until over
max limit.
