Build on changes I714dce969088e17caaa1daddc881ebca6834e0f1, which modified how we registered options for both the main and API databases, and Iad2e4da4546b80a016e477577d23accb2606a6e4, which removed support for experimental database reconnects, and start ignoring the 'use_db_reconnect' option. This means the option will no longer appear in our documentation and won't be recognised by any of the validation tooling if present in a nova.conf file. No tests are present because I'm not entirely sure how to test the thing. You can validate it manually though by attempting to set the option in a test and watch things blow up like so: oslo_config.cfg.NoSuchOptError: no such option use_db_reconnect in group [database] A second unnecessary 'deepcopy()' is removed. This was missed in change I714dce969088e17caaa1daddc881ebca6834e0f1. Change-Id: Ie7e4ccaf32f7222b8e305a38b48de7980744a98f Signed-off-by: Stephen Finucane <stephenfin@redhat.com>

OpenStack Nova provides a cloud computing fabric controller, supporting a wide
variety of compute technologies, including: libvirt (KVM, Xen, LXC and more),
Hyper-V, VMware, OpenStack Ironic and PowerVM.
Use the following resources to learn more.
API
---
To learn how to use Nova's API, consult the documentation available online at:
- `Compute API Guide <https://docs.openstack.org/api-guide/compute/>`__
- `Compute API Reference <https://docs.openstack.org/api-ref/compute/>`__
For more information on OpenStack APIs, SDKs and CLIs in general, refer to:
- `OpenStack for App Developers <https://www.openstack.org/appdev/>`__
- `Development resources for OpenStack clouds
<https://developer.openstack.org/>`__
Operators
---------
To learn how to deploy and configure OpenStack Nova, consult the documentation
available online at:
- `OpenStack Nova <https://docs.openstack.org/nova/>`__
In the unfortunate event that bugs are discovered, they should be reported to
the appropriate bug tracker. If you obtained the software from a 3rd party
operating system vendor, it is often wise to use their own bug tracker for
reporting problems. In all other cases use the master OpenStack bug tracker,
available at:
- `Bug Tracker <https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova>`__
Developers
----------
For information on how to contribute to Nova, please see the contents of the
CONTRIBUTING.rst.
Any new code must follow the development guidelines detailed in the HACKING.rst
file, and pass all unit tests.
Further developer focused documentation is available at:
- `Official Nova Documentation <https://docs.openstack.org/nova/>`__
- `Official Client Documentation
<https://docs.openstack.org/python-novaclient/>`__
Other Information
-----------------
During each `Summit`_ and `Project Team Gathering`_, we agree on what the whole
community wants to focus on for the upcoming release. The plans for nova can
be found at:
- `Nova Specs <http://specs.openstack.org/openstack/nova-specs/>`__
