Resource: OS::Nova::Server - Parameters
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
The OS::Nova::Server resource manages the running virtual machine (VM)
instance within an OpenStack cloud. (See
https://docs.openstack.org/developer/heat/template_guide/openstack.html#OS::Nova::Server.)
The following four properties of the ``OS::Nova::Server``
resource must follow an
ONAP specified naming convention.
1. ``image``
2. ``flavor``
3. ``name``
4. ``availability_zone``
Requirement R-01455 defines how the ``{vm-type]`` is defined.
Requirement R-82481 defines how the ``{vm-type}`` is used.
The table below provides a summary. The sections that follow provides
the detailed requirements.

Example
^^^^^^^^^^^
The example below depicts part of a Heat Orchestration Template that
uses the four ``OS::Nova::Server`` properties discussed in this section.
In the Heat Orchestration Template below, four Virtual Machines
(``OS::Nova::Server``) are created: two dns servers with ``{vm-type}`` set to
``dns`` and two oam servers with ``{vm-type}`` set to ``oam``.
Note that the parameter
associated with the property name is a ``comma_delimited_list`` for ``dns`` and
a string for ``oam``.
.. code-block:: yaml

dns_image_name:
type: string
description: dns server image

Boot Options
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
.. req::

:target: VNF
:keyword: MAY
:updated: casablanca
A VNF's Heat Orchestration Template's Virtual Machine
(i.e., ``OS::Nova::Server`` resource) **MAY** boot from an image or
**MAY** boot from a Cinder Volume.
.. req::
:id: R-83706
:target: VNF
:keyword: MUST
:validation_mode: static
:updated: casablanca
When a VNF's Heat Orchestration Template's Virtual Machine
(i.e., ``OS::Nova::Server`` resource) boots from an image, the
``OS::Nova::Server`` resource property ``image`` **MUST** be used.
The requirements associated with
the 'image' property are detailed in `Property: image`_
.. req::
:id: R-69588
:target: VNF
:keyword: MUST
:validation_mode: static
:updated: casablanca
When a VNF's Heat Orchestration Template's Virtual Machine
(i.e., ``OS::Nova::Server`` Resource) boots from Cinder Volume, the
``OS::Nova::Server`` resource property
``block_device_mapping`` or ``block_device_mapping_v2``
**MUST** be used.
There are currently no heat guidelines
associated with these two properties:
'block_device_mapping' and 'block_device_mapping_v2'.
