            Phil,

            You are correct and this seems to be an error. I don't think
            in the earlier ML thread[1] that anyone remembered that the
            quota classes were being used for default quotas. IMO we
            need to revert this removal as we (accidentally) removed a
            Havana feature with no notification to the community. I've
            reactivated a bug[2] and marked it critcal.

                Are you aware that there is already a way to do this
                through the cli using quota-class-update?
                
http://docs.openstack.org/__user-guide-admin/content/cli___set_quotas.html

                (near the bottom)

                Are you suggesting that we also add the ability to use
                just regular quota-update? I'm not sure i see the need
                for both.

                    I would to hear your thoughts about an idea to add a
                    way to manage the default quota values through the API.

                    The idea is to use the current quota api, but
                    sending ''default' instead of the tenant_id. This
                    change would apply to quota-show and quota-update
                    methods.

                    This approach will help to simplify the
                    implementation of another blueprint named
                    per-flavor-quotas

                    Feedback? Suggestions?

    The reverted series for nova on master is here [1].


I don't think we want a full revert here, the feature that we broke is
the ability to easily update the default quota values without restarting
any services, not quota-classes themselves. Given that I see 3 paths
forward:

1. Provide an alternate way to do this. OpenStack already has an
implicit assumption that one has a way of rolling out config files
across all machines. so we can teach oslo.config to know which config
options can be updated without a restart.  While this definitely breaks
the API, this is a rarely used API and we can avoid breaking
functionality at least.
2. Do a partial revert of this API to only support overriding the
default quota values. Hopefully while doing this we can simplify the
quota logic and reduce the number of DB calls needed. This way we can
restore the working part of the API and not the unimplemented
quota-class logic itself.
3. Do a full revert and re-add all the unimplemented quota-class logic,
we now have just re-added a non-working API.

While I would prefer to take path 1 as I think that gets us closer to
where we should be, I think path 2 is safer approach.


    Once that's merged I can work on backporting the revert for the API
    change to stable/icehouse, which will be a little tricky given
    conflicts from master.

The full revert, #3 in your list, is half merged.  We talked about this in the 
nova meeting on Thursday [1] and this was the agreed direction given Icehouse 
is broken if you're upgrading and using this API.  So the immediate concern is 
getting Icehouse fixed, which means reverting the back to the point that the 
API is available again on master and then cherry picking that back to 
stable/icehouse so anyone upgrading to Icehouse isn't broken.

I agree that we don't want all of this unusable code in tree and we should work 
on ripping out what isn't needed in Juno, maybe that involves deprecating part 
of the existing API, I'm not sure since it seems with the V2 API discussions we 
came to the conclusion that we can't ever remove anything from V2.  However, I 
think we have to slow down and figure that out separately in Juno rather than 
leave Icehouse broken until we figure out what we're going to do on master and 
then backport it.

Matt and I chatted on IRC and have come up with an outlined plan, if we missed 
anything please don't hesitate to comment or ask.
