A Bootable Status is set to "True" automatically when user create a volume from a image.
But user have to set bootable status manually under the following situations. 1.When user create a empty volume and install os in volume like this. $ cinder create 10 $ nova boot --image [image_uuid(iso format)] --flavor 1 \ --block-device-mapping vdb=[volume_uuid]:10::0 ubuntu_vm 2.When user create a bootable volume from instance. http://docs.openstack.org/grizzly/openstack-compute/admin/content/instance-creation.html#d6e6679 So I'm envisioning to add bootable option like this. $ cinder create --bootable true 10 If you have any comments or suggestion, please let me know. And please let me know if there's any discussion about this. --thanks --hiroyuki _______________________________________________ OpenStack-dev mailing list OpenStack-dev@lists.openstack.org http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-dev
