Reboot an instance¶
A soft reboot attempts a graceful shut down and restart of the instance. ... Rescue mode provides a mechanism for access, even if an image renders the instance inaccessible. By default, it starts an instance from the initial image attaching the current boot disk as a secondary one.
Does OpenStack support live migration?
In a multi-cell cloud, instances can be live migrated to a different host in the same cell, but not across cells. The following sections describe how to configure your hosts for live migrations using the KVM and XenServer hypervisors.
Is rollback a live migration stage?
There is no rollback if failure happens in live-migration-operation stage.
What is OpenStack migration?
When you want to move an instance from one compute host to another, you can use the openstack server migrate command. The scheduler chooses the destination compute host based on its settings. This process does not assume that the instance has shared storage available on the target host.
