OpenStack Essex Design Summit

The goal is to be able to retrieve information not only about running/scheduled instances & volumes, but about totally available & used H/W resources, such as amount of CPU/memory/disk space+disk types/networking resources/etc. Some of this information reported to schedulers. We can try to retrieve it from them (though it might be tricky in multi-schedulers per zone environments) or register a new service who will collect it from nodes. This session will focus on Nova, but it might be relevant for other services as well.
