http://git.openstack.org/cgit/openstack/nova/tree/etc/nova/README- nova.conf.txt tells you to run tox -e genconfig to generate the sample.
We removed the sample from the tree back in Icehouse: https://github.com/openstack/nova/commit/918f6eab7c69ca2c698fa6782ecf1a6639a41938 There is probably an old dev mailing list thread on this somewhere, but basically it came down to the fact that the gate was broken every time a library that fed options into nova.conf.sample (think oslo and keystonemiddleware) would release a new version that changed (add/update/remove) options and nova.conf.sample wouldn't match what was generated, so all nova changes would be blocked from the gate until we got a change up that fixed it - which happened weekly and everyone hated it, so we removed it. There are other projects that had the same issue and did the same, or are still just living with the constant breakage. ** Changed in: nova Status: New => Won't Fix -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Yahoo! Engineering Team, which is subscribed to OpenStack Compute (nova). https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1476912 Title: No nova.conf.sample, and no details procedures to describe how to generate a full list of nova.conf.sample Status in OpenStack Compute (nova): Won't Fix Bug description: 1. Version of Nova: 1:2015.1.0 There is no nova.conf.sample in source code at github.com And there is no detailed documents to tell users(not developers) to generate a full list of nova.conf.sample. Options described in deployment guide on docs.openstack.org is very different from the generated nova.conf.sample by the command tox -egenconfig. 2. No logs needed, just check the source code on github.com 3. Reproduce steps. step 1. check the options listed in deployment guide on docs.openstack.org step 2. generate nova.conf.sample as commond listed in https://github.com/openstack/nova/blob/stable/kilo/etc/nova/README-nova.conf.txt step 3. try to find out options listed in deployment guide. Suggest from a user (not a developer), why not generate a full list of nova.conf.sample like other projects like neutron, glance?
