[Bug 1943881] [NEW] Server concepts in Compute API Guide

 

Public bug reported:

Suspend, Resume section has confusing meaning explaining when VCPUs are
available.

"Suspending a server is similar to placing a device in hibernation;
memory and vCPUs become available to create other servers."

When VM is shutdown, it stays on a server. Its allocation is hold
against an allocation of the server. Placement counts all VCPUs, for
active and inactive VMs.
