ZZ00116: CANNOT MODIFY EXISTING FLAVORS AND YOU HAVE TO CREATE NEW ONES.

APAR status

• Closed as documentation error.

Error description

• In openstack it is already documented, that you can not modify
  existing flavors and you have to create new ones. The openstack
  docu is referenced in the SCO infocenter at several places.
  The SCO infocenter also describes how to create a new flavor in
  openstack here:
  http://pic.dhe.ibm.com/infocenter/tivihelp/v48r1/topic/com.ibm.s
  co.doc_2.2/dd/mp/mpc_flavor.html.
  However this description is in the virtual System section only.
  We also should refer to that description in the virtual
  Application section.

Problem conclusion

• Text was added in section 'Deploying virtual application
  patterns' in SmartCloud Orchestrator 2.2 Installation and
  Administration Guide
  
  Added text:
  
  Note: If the deployment process is stopped and in the Virtual
  Application Instances window the flavor error message is
  displayed, you must create a
  flavor with memory, vCPUs, and storage values equal to or
  greater than the requirements of the virtual machines that you
  are deploying.
  For information about creating flavors, see Creating new flavors
  in OpenStack.
  
  After you created the new flavor, delete the virtual application
  instance and redeploy the virtual application pattern.
