That could get tricky. We only support reverting to the last snapshot if we reuse the same volume. Otherwise, we can create volume from snapshot, but I don't think it's often that the first thing a user does is create a snapshot on initial creation of a boot image. If it was created from image cache, and the backend creates those cached volume by using a snapshot, then that might be an option. But these are a lot of ifs, so that seems like it would make the logic for this much more complicated. Maybe a phase II optimization we can look into? __________________________________________________________________________ OpenStack Development Mailing List (not for usage questions) Unsubscribe: openstack-dev-requ...@lists.openstack.org?subject:unsubscribe http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-dev
