'status' filter 'soft_deleted' does not work without 'deleted' filter

[Ankit Agrawal]

If you pass status=soft_deleted, it doesn't return soft_deleted instances in the list. You must add deleted=True along with status='soft_deleted'. So it should be documented properly to avoid the confusion.

curl -g -i --cacert "/opt/stack/data/CA/int-ca/ca-chain.pem" -X GET http://10.69.4.150:8774/v2/58bad77b05ef44f8a9f5fc5089bab30e/servers/detail?status='soft_deleted&deleted=true' -H "User-Agent: python-novaclient" -H "Accept: application/json" -H "X-Auth-Token: 32d57785556647d4b03e4cacf74e3aea"

Output: Returns soft-deleted instances.

Output: Does not returns soft-deleted instances.

I don't see documentation about the status in our git repositories. Where should this be added?

We don't currently document this, AFAICT. If OP has a location to add this, then we can reopen.
