description: >
  This is a very simple template that illustrates the basic features
  of OS::Heat::AutoScalingGroup and demonstrates that these features
  are available even when the scaled resource is a nested stack.  By
  virtue of its simplicity this example should be usable in many
  contexts.  In particular, this example does not require Neutron nor
  a load balancer nor any particular support for software in the VMs.
  In fact, the VMs in this example do not actually do anything.  This
  example does no automatic scaling, but does discuss manual scaling.
  For a more complete example, see autoscaling.yaml.

parameters:
  key_name:
    type: string
    description: Name of an existing key pair to use for the instances
    constraints:
      - custom_constraint: nova.keypair
        description: Must name a public key (pair) known to Nova
  flavor:
    type: string
    description: Flavor for the instances to be created
    default: m1.small
    constraints:
      - custom_constraint: nova.flavor
        description: Must be a flavor known to Nova
  image:
    type: string
    description: >
      Name or ID of the image to use for the instances.
      You can get the default from
      http:https://cloud.fedoraproject.org/fedora-20.x86_64.qcow2
      There is also
      http:https://cloud.fedoraproject.org/fedora-20.i386.qcow2
      Any image should work since this template
      does not ask the VMs to do anything.
