Hey Ahmed,


TL;DR Glance doesn't appear to be supported with libvirt driver yet.

Judging by the stack trace, it looks like the code is taking an S3 code path even though you've selected the GlanceImageService.

Looking through the code, it doesn't appear that the libvirt/Glance code is there yet (the patch from the 708673<https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bug/708673> doesn't appear to be enough).

This should be logged as a bug. I don't *think* the fix will be that hard, we just need to modify images.fetch() to respect the image_service and to stream the data using the Glance client rather than curl. Until then, I think the objectstore or local-store will be your best bet.

Hope that helps,

Rick

Subject: Re: [Openstack] Glance, libvirt/kvm snapshots

Hi Guys,

So The guys over at IRC convinced me that posting that to the mailing list would be cooler to solve/discuss, so don't let me down :).

Basically i'm working on launching an instance via the openstack API, using the Bexar release and the python-novatools (the novatools command), The hypervisor is KVM and Glance is used for Imaging(image_service=nova.image.glance.GlanceImageService).

After using the boot subcommand in novatools, the instance is marked as "build" and i get the following errors in the logs:

 2011-02-16 09:23:23,535 ERROR nova.compute.manager [F--YCJOZ14LY9LTFHYH1 c9er openstack] instance 7: Failed to spawn

ttx on IRC told me that it shouldn't fetch a :3333 URL, but that was fixed in a bug at https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bug/708673

Any hints on what could cause that ? did anybody work with novatools against kvm/glance ?

Thanks in advance.
