I noticed there were some changes to the way we used openstack quotas today. So I had to do it the manual way! Please note that this can only be done thru the Admin API function, so if you are a Rackspace customer you would need to reach out to us to do this, unless you ran your own openstack or devstack implementation in-house.<\/p>\n

Here is how I achieved it:<\/p>\n

\r\nsupernova {environment} {action} --option {number} {customer_ID}\r\n<\/pre>\n
\r\nsupernova lon quota-update --instances 250 10010101\r\n<\/pre>\n
There is a lot of different commands available, use nova help to get more detail<\/p>\n
