Balazs Gibizer e25418c857 [doc]Remove eventlet based API endpoints

The previous patch[1] removed the entry points. As there is sizable
amount of doc change needed to remove all the references from the doc
to the removed entry points a separate patch, this, is created to do so.

Command-line Utilities

In this section you will find information on Nova's command line utilities.

Nova Management Commands

These commands are used to manage existing installations. They are designed to be run by operators in an environment where they have direct access to the nova database.

nova-manage nova-policy nova-status

Service Daemons

The service daemons make up a functioning nova environment. All of these are expected to be started by an init system, expect to read a nova.conf file, and daemonize correctly after starting up.

nova-compute nova-conductor nova-novncproxy nova-scheduler nova-serialproxy nova-spicehtml5proxy

WSGI Services

Starting in the 2025.2 release, the only way to deploy the nova api is in a wsgi container (uwsgi or apache/mod_wsgi). These are the wsgi entry points to do that:

nova-api-wsgi </user/wsgi>
nova-metadata-wsgi </user/wsgi>

Additional Tools

There are a few additional cli tools which nova services call when appropriate. This should not need to be called directly by operators, but they are documented for completeness and debugging if something goes wrong.

nova-rootwrap
