Change-Id: Iee81ee4ed6d6bbfa2c17955396d4ff7f36f08017 Closes-Bug: #1799495 ** Changed in: nova Status: In Progress => Fix Released -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Yahoo! Engineering Team, which is subscribed to OpenStack Compute (nova). https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1799495 Title: api-ref: createImage description does not mention volume-backed snapshots Status in OpenStack Compute (nova): Fix Released Bug description: The API reference for the createImage server action: https://developer.openstack.org/api-ref/compute/?expanded=create- server-back-up-createbackup-action-detail,create-image-createimage- action-detail#create-image-createimage-action Does not mention anything about volume-backed instance snapshots. There are a few differences: 1. For preconditions, volume-backed server snapshot is only supported for ACTIVE, SHUTOFF and SUSPENDED instances, not PAUSED like for image-backed. 2. The project must have sufficient volume snapshot quota in the block storage service. 3. Volume snapshots will be created for all volumes attached to the server and then those will be represented with a "block_device_mapping" image property in the resulting snapshot image in the image service (glance). If that snapshot image is used later to create a new instance, it will result in a volume-backed instance where the root volume is created from the snapshot of the original root volume.
