Yes, you can. The only thing that you have to do is modify the /etc/nova/nova.conf file

After install, I read that KVM would run better (and faster) on server infrastructure than QEMU. But I think I was too late to realize it. I had already initiated stack.sh. My question is : Can I switch to KVM without having to re-install DevStack? If yes, can somebody help me out by pointing to the right docs / procedure to achieve this? Thanks in advance, ~ shine _______________________________________________ Mailing list: http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack Post to : openstack@lists.openstack.org Unsubscribe : http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack
