Public bug reported:

https://docs.openstack.org/nova/latest/cli/nova-manage.html#nova-api-
database

nova-manage api_db sync
    Sync the api cells database up to the most recent version. This is the standard way to create the db as well.

There are three things wrong here:

1. It's missing the --version option.

2. There is no "api cells database", it should just say API database.

3. It does not create a database, you must have already created the
database. The sync command just creates the database schema (table
definitions, indexes, etc).

--

Starting in 18.0.0 Rocky, it will also synchronize the optionally
configured placement database, so we might as well mention that.
