Hi Maciej,

Thanks a lot for your valuable feedback, I've fixed the documentation
to reflect your comments.

The "--instance-type" for the occi-compute is a bug in the
documentation, the intended way to pass the instance type is through
the OCCI XML representation:

---
    <COMPUTE>
        <ID>123AF</ID>
        <NAME>Web Server</NAME>
        <INSTANCE_TYPE>small</INSTANCE_TYPE>
        <STATE>running</STATE>
        <DISKS>
....
---

Regards,

-Tino
