Problem

After adding the Openstack to the Storware Backup & Recovery not all instances are visible after the succesful inventory synchronization

Solution

By default, Openstack has limits set on the responses sent by the nova API to 1000 entries per response. In order to increase this value you need to edit the nova.conf file which is usually located in the /etc/nova/nova.conf. You need to add the following line to the [DEFAULT] section.

Example (increasing the limit to 5000):

[DEFAULT] osapi_max_limit = 5000

After modifying the file you need to restart the nova services.
