Is there a way to use the knife rackspace (or openstack) command to build servers on the Openstack-based Rackspace platform? I can’t find any information about this anywhere.
You would want to pass in your knife.rb the "v2" option to request and
provision next generation servers. That's what RS calls their OpenStack
VM's.
knife[:rackspace_version] = 'v2'

Also, if if find the nodes take a long while to become available.
(Especially the larger nodes with more local disk) you can use this PR [1]
in order to keep the root disk 10G and handle the extra local disk within
your chef run. We found requesting the 15 or 30G nodes went from 15-30
min down to ~5. Without that RS will extend your root disk on provision
and its a time consuming proces
