   SYNOPSIS
          nova-rootwrap [options]

   DESCRIPTION
       Filters which commands nova is allowed to run as another user.

       To     use     this,     you     should     set     the     following     in    nova.conf:
       rootwrap_config=/etc/nova/rootwrap.conf

       You also need to let the nova user run nova-rootwrap as root in sudoers: nova ALL = (root)
       NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/nova-rootwrap /etc/nova/rootwrap.conf *

       To   make   allowed   commands   node-specific,   your   packaging   should  only  install
       {compute,network}.filters respectively on compute and network nodes (i.e.  nova-api  nodes
       should not have any of those files installed).
