Yes, that is an alternative. The complication is how to secure the 
communication between Magnum bays and the standalone docker registry. I assume 
we needs some custom logic to setup the communication channel (i.e. install the 
TLS credential). One way to support it is to add a configuration hook [1] that 
allows operators to customize the setup. Pre-built docker images into the 
glance image is another approach. I think Magnum can offer both.

Subject: Re: [openstack-dev] [Magnum]Cache docker images

why not just allow a prefix to be added to the container name?

you can then have a container named:
foo/mycontainer

and the prefix could be set to mylocalserver.org:8080:
mylocalserver.org:8080/foo/mycontainer

Then if the site needs local only containers, they can set up a local repo. Be 
it a stand alone docker registry, the docker datacenter product, artifactory 
with the docker plugin, etc.

Thanks,
Kevin

Subject: [openstack-dev] [Magnum]Cache docker images
Hi all,

We want to eliminate pulling docker images over the Internet on bay 
provisioning. There are two problems of this approach:
1. Pulling docker images over the Internet is slow and fragile.
2. Some clouds don't have external Internet access.

It is suggested to build all the required images into the cloud images to 
resolved the issue.

Here is a solution:
We export the docker images as tar files, and put the tar files into a dir in 
the image when we build the image. And we add scripts to load the tar files in 
cloud-init, so that we don't need to download the docker images.

Any advice for this solution or any better solution?

Regards,
Wanghua
