Flags and Flagfiles
19
 
===================
20
 
 
21
 
Nova uses a configuration file containing flags located in
22
 
``/etc/nova/nova.conf``. You can get the most recent listing of avaialble
23
 
flags by running ``nova-(servicename) --help``, for example:
24
 
 
25
 
::
26
 
 
27
 
  nova-api --help
28
 
 
29
 
A script for generating a sample ``nova.conf`` file is located in
30
 
``<nova_root>/tools/conf/run.sh``. This script traverses through the
31
 
source code and retrieves information of every option that is
32
 
defined. A file named ``nova.conf.sample`` will be placed in the same
33
 
directory.
34
 
 
35
 
The OpenStack wiki has a page with the flags listed by their purpose
36
 
and use at http://wiki.openstack.org/FlagsGrouping.
