Hi Anne, Thanks for the link! That is very close to what I was looking for.
Is there an easy way to tell what the valid options are for a given configuration option? For example: # Driver to use for network creation (string value) #network_driver=nova.network.linux_net Is there way to find the list of valid options for parameters like this? Some options such as network_api_class are covered in the provided documentation, but a large number of them are not. Thanks for the links!
