[jira] [Created] (JCLOUDS-507) Nova instance metadata is not limited to 5 pairs

Joel Friedly created JCLOUDS-507:
------------------------------------

             Summary: Nova instance metadata is not limited to 5 pairs
                 Key: JCLOUDS-507
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JCLOUDS-507
             Project: jclouds
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: jclouds-compute
    Affects Versions: 1.8.0
            Reporter: Joel Friedly
             Fix For: 1.8.0


The ``CreateServerOptions.metadata`` docs and method both say that only up to 5 key-value metadata pairs are allowed.  This is a requirement of Rackspace cloud, but not of upstream OpenStack.

There is a configurable metadata limit, the ``maxServerMeta`` nova absolute limit, but the default value is 128.  The python nova client just sends requests up to nova though and the server enforces the limit.
