Fix value of libvirt.hw_machine_type #715
Conversation
We are seeing the following entries in nova-compute.log:
WARNING nova.virt.libvirt.utils [-] Invalid hw_machine_type config value q35
The format for this config option is host-arch=machine-type. For
example: x86_64=machinetype1,armv7l=machinetype2.
There was a problem hiding this comment.
That's interesting, should we correct also this example in the doc, or is it correct and in openstack image set we should set hw_machine_type to "just" `q35'?

I assume the documentation is correct, because the image also has an architecture which can be set via another property. But when you set the default machine type via nova.conf, the expected format includes the architecture. I assume this is because a hypervisor can support multiple architectures if you are using QEMU with emulation.
