nova-manage optional arguments

-h, --help
show this help message and exit
--config-dir DIR
Path to a config directory to pull *.conf files from. This file set is sorted, so as to provide a predictable parse order if individual options are over-ridden. The set is parsed after the file(s) specified via previous --config-file, arguments hence over-ridden options in the directory take precedence.
--config-file PATH
Path to a config file to use. Multiple config files can be specified, with values in later files taking precedence. Defaults to None.
--debug, -d
If set to true, the logging level will be set to DEBUG instead of the default INFO level.
--log-config-append PATH, --log_config PATH
The name of a logging configuration file. This file is appended to any existing logging configuration files. For details about logging configuration files, see the Python logging module documentation. Note that when logging configuration files are used then all logging configuration is set in the configuration file and other logging configuration options are ignored (for example, logging_context_format_string).
--log-date-format DATE_FORMAT
Defines the format string for %(asctime)s in log records. Default: None . This option is ignored if log_config_append is set.
--log-dir LOG_DIR, --logdir LOG_DIR
(Optional) The base directory used for relative log_file paths. This option is ignored if log_config_append is set.
--log-file PATH, --logfile PATH
(Optional) Name of log file to send logging output to. If no default is set, logging will go to stderr as defined by use_stderr. This option is ignored if log_config_append is set.
--nodebug
The inverse of --debug
--nouse-syslog
The inverse of --use-syslog
--noverbose
The inverse of --verbose
--nowatch-log-file
The inverse of --watch-log-file
--syslog-log-facility SYSLOG_LOG_FACILITY
Syslog facility to receive log lines. This option is ignored if log_config_append is set.
--use-syslog
Use syslog for logging. Existing syslog format is DEPRECATED and will be changed later to honor RFC5424. This option is ignored if log_config_append is set.
--verbose, -v
If set to false, the logging level will be set to WARNING instead of the default INFO level.
--version
show program’s version number and exit
--watch-log-file
Uses logging handler designed to watch file system. When log file is moved or removed this handler will open a new log file with specified path instantaneously. It makes sense only if log_file option is specified and Linux platform is used. This option is ignored if log_config_append is set.
