Re: Cannot create snapshots of instances running not on the controller

 

looks like the compute node has a bad setting for glance_api_servers on the second node.

because glance_api_servers defaults to $glance_host:$glance_port, you should be able to fix it by setting:

glance_host = <ip where glance is running>

in your nova.conf on the second node.

From the dashboard i can successfully create snapshots of instances running on the controller but when i try to create a snapshot of an instance on a compute node i get in its logs:
