options:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
--cert CERT Path to SSL certificate file. Related options: * key * ssl_only *
[console] ssl_ciphers * [console] ssl_minimum_version
--config-dir DIR Path to a config directory to pull `*.conf` files from. This file set is
sorted, so as to provide a predictable parse order if individual options
are over-ridden. The set is parsed after the file(s) specified via
previous --config-file, arguments hence over-ridden options in the
directory take precedence. This option must be set from the command-line.
--config-file PATH Path to a config file to use. Multiple config files can be specified, with
values in later files taking precedence. Defaults to None. This option
must be set from the command-line.
--daemon Run as a background process.
--debug, -d If set to true, the logging level will be set to DEBUG instead of the
default INFO level.
--key KEY SSL key file (if separate from cert). Related options: * cert
--log-config-append PATH, --log-config PATH, --log_config PATH
The name of a logging configuration file. This file is appended to any
existing logging configuration files. For details about logging
configuration files, see the Python logging module documentation. Note
that when logging configuration files are used then all logging
configuration is set in the configuration file and other logging
configuration options are ignored (for example, log-date-format).
--log-date-format DATE_FORMAT
Defines the format string for %(asctime)s in log records. Default: None .
This option is ignored if log_config_append is set.
--log-dir LOG_DIR, --logdir LOG_DIR
(Optional) The base directory used for relative log_file paths. This
option is ignored if log_config_append is set.
--log-file PATH, --logfile PATH
(Optional) Name of log file to send logging output to. If no default is
set, logging will go to stderr as defined by use_stderr. This option is
ignored if log_config_append is set.
--nodaemon The inverse of --daemon
--nodebug The inverse of --debug
--nosource_is_ipv6 The inverse of --source_is_ipv6
--nossl_only The inverse of --ssl_only
--nouse-journal The inverse of --use-journal
--nouse-json The inverse of --use-json
--nouse-syslog The inverse of --use-syslog
--nowatch-log-file The inverse of --watch-log-file
--record RECORD Filename that will be used for storing websocket frames received and sent
by a proxy service (like VNC, spice, serial) running on this host. If this
is not set, no recording will be done.
--shell_completion SHELL_COMPLETION
Display a shell completion script Allowed values: bash, zsh
--source_is_ipv6 Set to True if source host is addressed with IPv6.
--ssl_only Disallow non-encrypted connections. Related options: * cert * key
--syslog-log-facility SYSLOG_LOG_FACILITY
Syslog facility to receive log lines. This option is ignored if
log_config_append is set.
--use-journal Enable journald for logging. If running in a systemd environment you may
wish to enable journal support. Doing so will use the journal native
protocol which includes structured metadata in addition to log
messages.This option is ignored if log_config_append is set.
--use-json Use JSON formatting for logging. This option is ignored if
log_config_append is set.
--use-syslog Use syslog for logging. Existing syslog format is DEPRECATED and will be
changed later to honor RFC5424. This option is ignored if
log_config_append is set.
--version show program's version number and exit
--watch-log-file Uses logging handler designed to watch file system. When log file is moved
or removed this handler will open a new log file with specified path
instantaneously. It makes sense only if log_file option is specified and
Linux platform is used. This option is ignored if log_config_append is
set.
--web WEB Path to directory with content which will be served by a web server.
The serial console feature:
The serial console feature allows you to connect to a guest in case a graphical console like
VNC, RDP or SPICE is not available. This is only currently supported for the libvirt, Ironic
and hyper-v drivers.
--serial_console-serialproxy_host SERIAL_CONSOLE_SERIALPROXY_HOST
The IP address which is used by the ``nova-serialproxy`` service to listen
for incoming requests. The ``nova-serialproxy`` service listens on this IP
address for incoming connection requests to instances which expose serial
console. Related options: * Ensure that this is the same IP address which
is defined in the option ``base_url`` of this section or use ``0.0.0.0``
to listen on all addresses.
--serial_console-serialproxy_port SERIAL_CONSOLE_SERIALPROXY_PORT
The port number which is used by the ``nova-serialproxy`` service to
listen for incoming requests. The ``nova-serialproxy`` service listens on
this port number for incoming connection requests to instances which
expose serial console. Related options: * Ensure that this is the same
port number which is defined in the option ``base_url`` of this section.
debugger options:
--remote_debug-host REMOTE_DEBUG_HOST
Debug host (IP or name) to connect to. This command line parameter is used
when you want to connect to a nova service via a debugger running on a
different host. Note that using the remote debug option changes how nova
uses the eventlet library to support async IO. This could result in
failures that do not occur under normal operation. Use at your own risk.
Possible Values: * IP address of a remote host as a command line parameter
to a nova service. For example:: nova-compute --config-file
/etc/nova/nova.conf --remote_debug-host <IP address of the debugger>
--remote_debug-port REMOTE_DEBUG_PORT
Debug port to connect to. This command line parameter allows you to
specify the port you want to use to connect to a nova service via a
debugger running on different host. Note that using the remote debug
option changes how nova uses the eventlet library to support async IO.
This could result in failures that do not occur under normal operation.
Use at your own risk. Possible Values: * Port number you want to use as a
command line parameter to a nova service. For example:: nova-compute
--config-file /etc/nova/nova.conf --remote_debug-host <IP address of the
debugger> --remote_debug-port <port debugger is listening on>.
