Scalability
OpenStack is supposed to support many compute nodes from the control node running the Horizon dashboard. This should not be related to the added Cisco Nexus Fabric functionality.
The recommended number of VMs per compute node for a user is ten.
Batching VM creation and deletion with OpenStack should be used with great caution. We support ten or fewer VMs per batch creation and deletion on two compute nodes. Batching capability beyond that is best-effort.
