[Bug 1265734] [NEW] OVF or bare?

 

Public bug reported:

Hi,

I have a question regarding choosing container for an image. For example
for the testVM image provided in openstack dashboard the container is
bare by defalut(bare container format means the image does not have a
container or metadata), however when I use hortonworks hdp plugin image
for centOS which container format should I use ?I doubt if I should use
bare as this image has pre populated data like  hadoop-libhdfs,  hadoop-
native,  hadoop-sbin and more.

The problem is my cluster remains in waiting state even though all the
instances are active. So I wanted to make sure if using bare for the pre
populated hdp QCOW2 image is fine or if it makes it useless.

Thank  you.
