So, after a bit of investigation, I found that's actually not a regression and we had other bug reports about that. The one I could refer is https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bug/1526715 which is technically not a duplicate but where the proposal is very close to the one you wrote : https://review.openstack.org/#/c/258472/6
Anyway, given it would mean the API would accept a new body argument and merging that would change the API behaviour by returning more instances, I think we would need to open a spec for that and ask for a new API microversion (see http://docs.openstack.org/developer/nova/process.html#overview) I'm marking that bug report as Opinion to clarify my thoughts. ** Changed in: nova Status: In Progress => Opinion ** Changed in: nova Importance: Undecided => Low ** Tags removed: newton-rc-potential -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Yahoo!
