As far as I know, it is not possible to assign uuid from deleted image to the new one, because deleted images keeps their metadata in DB.

Glance images are immutable. In order to update it, you should do as you are doing, but then rename the old image, then upload the updated one. Take note of the UUID as well.

    I'm trying to update the contents of an image, but it looks like it is
    not working at all.

    First I upload a test image:

    ---snip---
    # dd if=/dev/urandom of=testing.img bs=1M count=10
    # glance image-create --disk-format raw --container-format bare --name
    TESTING --file testing.img
    ---snap---

    Now I want to overwrite the contents of this image:

    ---snip---
    # dd if=/dev/urandom of=testing.img bs=1M count=20
    # glance image-update --file testing.img TESTING
    ---snap---

    After this call the size of the image is still the same like before
    (10485760 bytes).

    I do not have issues in the logfiles of glance-api and
    glance-registry.

    What am I doing wrong?

    Is it not possible to update the contents of an image?

    Christian.
