   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).
