The current nova-conductor secton has a short descripiton about nova-condutor. However, it is not necessary content as configuration reference. Also, it is not needed for admin guide. backport: newton Change-Id: Ia910f24ec0cbeb498441865c1e95be8b863949ab Closes-Bug: #1630843

Compute service
|
|
===============
|
|
|
|
The Compute service is a cloud computing fabric controller,
|
|
which is the main part of an *Infrastructure as a Service* (IaaS) system.
|
|
You can use OpenStack Compute to host and manage cloud computing systems.
|
|
This section describes the Compute service configuration options.
|
|
|
|
To configure your Compute installation,
|
|
you must define configuration options in these files:
|
|
|
|
* ``nova.conf`` contains most of the Compute configuration options and
|
|
resides in the ``/etc/nova`` directory.
|
|
* ``api-paste.ini`` defines Compute limits and resides in the
|
|
``/etc/nova`` directory.
|
|
* Related Image service and Identity service management configuration files.
