More information about OpenStack Nova is at http://nova.openstack.org. OPTIONS ======= The standard pattern for executing a nova-manage command is: ``nova-manage []`` Run without arguments to see a list of available command categories: ``nova-manage`` Categories are project, shell, vpn, and floating.

This is the standard way to create the db as well. ``nova-manage db archive_deleted_rows [--max_rows ] [--verbose]`` Move deleted rows from production tables to shadow tables. Specifying --verbose will print the results of the archive operation for any tables that were changed. ``nova-manage db null_instance_uuid_scan [--delete]`` Lists and optionally deletes database records where instance_uuid is NULL. Nova ApiDb ~~~~~~~~~~ ``nova-manage api_db version`` Print the current cells api database version. ``nova-manage api_db sync`` Sync the api cells database up to the most recent version. This is the standard way to create the db as well. Nova Logs ~~~~~~~~~ ``nova-manage logs errors`` Displays nova errors from log files. ``nova-manage logs syslog `` Displays nova alerts from syslog. Nova Shell ~~~~~~~~~~ ``nova-manage shell bpython`` Starts a new bpython shell. ``nova-manage shell ipython`` Starts a new ipython shell. ``nova-manage shell python`` Starts a new python shell. ``nova-manage shell run`` Starts a new shell using python. ``nova-manage shell script `` Runs the named script from the specified path with flags set.

Nova Floating IPs ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ``nova-manage floating create [--pool ] [--interface ]`` Creates floating IP addresses for the given range, optionally specifying a floating pool and a network interface. ``nova-manage floating delete `` Deletes floating IP addresses in the range given. ``nova-manage floating list`` Displays a list of all floating IP addresses. Nova Images ~~~~~~~~~~~ ``nova-manage image image_register `` Registers an image with the image service. ``nova-manage image kernel_register `` Registers a kernel with the image service. ``nova-manage image ramdisk_register `` Registers a ramdisk with the image service. ``nova-manage image all_register `` Registers an image kernel and ramdisk with the image service. ``nova-manage image convert `` Converts all images in directory from the old (Bexar) format to the new format. Nova VM ~~~~~~~~~~~ ``nova-manage vm list [host]`` Show a list of all instances.
