UPDATE 09/27/2016
Ugly workaround ( create bash script ) as admin
In shell loop ( X supposed to work as counter)
$ nova boot --image <uuid> --flavor m$X.large --key_name oskey092716 \
--availability-zone nova:server$X
thus favor mx.large will boot nova instance on Compute Node serverx (X=1,2,3,... or whatever you need )
I understand that it is worst case scenario if host-aggregates syntax won't help

UPDATE 09/26/2016
Link 1 addresses questions
CPU Pinning in OpenStack
Reserving dedicated cores on the compute host(s) for host processes, avoiding host process and guest virtual machine instances from fighting for the same CPU cores;
Reserving dedicated cores on the compute host(s) for the virtual machine instances themselves;
Enabling the required scheduler filters;
Creating a host aggregate to add all hosts configured for CPU pinning to;
Creating a performance focused flavor to target this host aggregate; and
Launching an instance with CPU pinning!
Continue follow link 1 in your case I would try :-
$ nova aggregate-create storage
$ nova aggregate-set-metadata 1 storage=true
$ nova aggregate-create normal
$ nova aggregate-set-metadata 2 storage=false
$ nova flavor-key ID_OF_YOUR_STORAGE_OPTIMIZED set aggregate_instance_extra_specs:storage=true
$ nova aggregate-add-host 1 compute1.nova
======================================================================
Try this logic :-
[root@overcloud-controller-0 ~]# nova aggregate-create storage
+----+---------+-------------------+-------+----------+
| Id | Name | Availability Zone | Hosts | Metadata |
+----+---------+-------------------+-------+----------+
| 1 | storage | - | | |
+----+---------+-------------------+-------+----------+
[root@overcloud-controller-0 ~]# nova aggregate-set-metadata 1 storage=true

I worked on this a while ago. However instructions from
http://redhatstackblog.redhat.com/201...
worked for me.
