Hi Andrei,

The underlying issue is starvation of the storage space used to store
image content(as opposed to the image metadata, which takes up very
little space).

The reason the killed image isn't showing up in the output of glance index
is that non-viable images are sanitized from the list.

If you want to be rid of this image, you can easily find the offending image
ID from the glance registry log, e.g.:

  $ grep killed /var/log/glance/registry.log
  ...
  012-04-30 11:26:48 9198     INFO [sqlalchemy.engine.base.Engine] ('2012-04-30 10:26:48.806445', u'killed', u'e75a8d52-0cc5-481d-b765-3a056d80ad28')

Then you can just delete the metadata directly from the glance registry DB.

For example if using the default sqlite DB, use:

  $ sudo sqlite3 glance.sqlite "DELETE from images where id = 'e75a8d52-0cc5-481d-b765-3a056d80ad28'"

If on the other hand you're using mysql or postgres, just issue the DELETE query
via the appropriate DB client.

Cheers,
Eoghan
