When you modify VM properties this way, Nova’s database will contai incorrect information about its instances and hypervisor hosts, which is likely to cause problems. As a minimum, Nova will schedule new instances based on incorrect hypervisor hosts’ resource usage data.
Having said that, you could use Virtual Machine Manager, or write your own tools using a libvirt library, or perhaps even kill the qemu process and rerun it manually (not easy given the complexity of its command line options).
I am curious why you want to launch VMs with OpenStack and then manage them with another tool? And why you need an alternative to virsh?
