Hi Marios,
This seems to work fine with master and I do see swap created with size of the
'swap_size' specified in the template.
[fedora@test-stack-novacompute-nwownbcokzra ~]$ swapon -s
Filename Type Size Used Priority
/dev/vdb partition 524284 0 -1
Though I did face a novaclient issue with python-novaclient==2.26.0.
The above issue has been resolved by the below commit.
https://github.com/openstack/python-novaclient/commit/0a8fffffbaa48083ba2e79abf67096efa59fa18b
When specifying swap_size more than that permitted by the flavor we get
'CREATE_FAILED' with the following error. So I assume it works as expected.
resources.NovaCompute: Swap drive requested is larger

Thanks,
