Sorry, my bad. The more free RAM is better (cost is smaller) thanks to this -1.0. So the default behavior is spread-first indeed. To make it fill-first, you can add flag --compute_fill_first_cost_fn_weight=1.0 to scheduler node. Kind regards, Yuriy. On Thu, May 3, 2012 at 8:15 PM, Yuriy Taraday

Fill-first cost function returns the amount of free RAM. By default it is negated (multiplied by -1.0), so the less free RAM is better. I think, this is a bit misguiding, but was changed right before Essex (see https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bug/965732 ). Kind regards, Yuriy. On Thu, May 3, 2

Hi Szymon, This is a really great that you are working for energy efficiency datacenter. whatever the topics you mentioned that really affects for efficient data center. I would like to add some points on this. You should consider Quantum project to deploy and research for datacenter. Distributed
