Dirk, I am not using ceph, I'm using shared NFS storage at /var/lib/nova/instances only.
All the snapshots we do are of QCOW2 images. OpenStack by default converts all images to QCOW2 when you run an instance from them. We had QCOW snapshots working perfectly in Grizzly, it only stopped working in Havana. As a result of above, we can not create any snapshot so I don't know if we would have any problems to boot from them. We can boot properly from snapshots created before upgrade. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to nova in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1244694 Title: Creating snapshot fails due to nonexistent temporary directory To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bug/1244694/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
