Hi Vimal,
Though I am new to OpenStack but I would like to share my understanding.
Command "nova hypervisor-list" gives the list of compute nodes on which compute instances (VMs) can be instantiated.
While the command "nova service-list" gives the list of nova services which are running in controller node. This also includes nova-compute services running in each host.
I am not fully confident on my question, please correct me if something is wrong.

What is the difference between:

  1. using "the Command-line interface to the OpenStack APIs" through the command "openstack"
    and
  2. using the separate APIs of the different components (for example using the command-line interface to the Neutron APIs directly)?

Advantages and disadvantages?

OpenStack: Why Horizon and CLI don't show updated resources after the CPU overcommitment procedure?

I configured nova.conf file with:
cpu_allocation_ratio=16.0
ram_allocation_ratio=1.5
specifying CoreFilter in scheduler_default_filters.
After this configuration i can't see the overcommitment results in the CLI or in Horizon.
Why? Any tips?
