Adding OpenStack nova rebuild functionality

I’m working on adding nova rebuild functionality to Ansible’s Cloud Modules. At the moment I’ve got it working as a separate module named nova_rebuild:

Would you rather have this functionality added to the nova_compute module? (For example, running _rebuild_server instead of _create_server if state=present and rebuild=yes, or something like that.)

Thanks,
Allison

Yes, if this deals directly with VMs running on a compute node, it would be better as a state option for the existing module.

Thanks!

Hi Allison, have you thought about getting this into the existing nova module?
