You cannot store multiple image parts in Glance -- you must store the
image as a single file. The backend that Glance uses for storage *may*
split the incoming file into chunks, but that's not something you will
see as a user of the Glance AAPI. That said, I *think* you mean that you
want to store a kernel image, a ramdisk image and a disk image in
Glance, and that is certainly possible -- but it's wrong to call those
"image parts" :)
