VMware: update the default 'task_poll_interval' time

[OpenStack Infra]

https://review.openstack.org/70079

Dear documentation bug triager. This bug was created here because we did not know how to map the project name "openstack/nova" to a launchpad project name. This indicates that the notify_impact config needs tweaks. You can ask the OpenStack infra team (#openstack-infra on freenode) for help if you need to.

    VMware: update the default 'task_poll_interval' time

    The original means that each operation against the backend takes at
    least 5 seconds. The default is updated to 0.5 seconds.

    DocImpact
        Updated default value for task_poll_interval from 5 seconds to
        0.5 seconds

This will be updated with the next run of our tables with autogenerate-config-docs.

[Stephen Gordon (sgordon)]

Interestingly I noticed this was picked up in the nova chapter in the guide (it's already up to date in master) but not in the cinder and glance chapters:

common/tables/cinder-vmware.xml: <td>vmware_task_poll_interval = 5</td>
common/tables/glance-vmware.xml: <td>vmware_task_poll_interval = 5</td>

Did you guys only update the nova code for this change...?

    VMware: Update default task_poll_interval value

    The task_poll_interval option is used as the polling interval of vCenter/ESX
    task status. This patch updates the default value to 0.5s in order to reduce
    the wait time for task completion. Similar change has been done in nova and
    this change is needed to keep the driver config values consistent.

    DocImpact
       Updated default value of task_poll_interval to 0.5 seconds.

Still not done in glance.

Once glance is fixed, we need to update in openstack-manuals:
