The documentation for Openstack Queens on how to resize an instance points KVM users to: -

https://docs.openstack.org/user-guide/cli_change_the_size_of_your_server.html

However this URL redirects to the general page: -

https://docs.openstack.org/queens/user/

which doesn't reveal how to resize instances. I believe this qualifies as a dead-link that needs revising.

Yup, dead link, thanks!

This was the doc in the user-guide in ocata:

https://github.com/openstack/openstack-manuals/blob/stable/ocata/doc/user-guide/source/cli-change-the-size-of-your-server.rst

That was dropped in pike, so we need to move it in-tree.

    doc: fix resize user guide link

    The admin config resize doc was linking to a now non-existent
    user guide doc which was deleted in pike. This change imports
    the resize user guide from the openstack-manuals stable/ocata
    branch, fixes the link, and updates the resize user doc to
    (1) link to our internal shutdown_timeout config option reference
    and (2) link to the image properties doc in glance for the
    os_shutdown_timeout image property.
