Title:
Compute manager ignores image_meta from api when booting an instance
Status in OpenStack Compute (Nova):
Fix Released
Bug description:
When booting an instance, in the API layer, we get the image to be
used for this instance or, if the instance is booted from a volume,
the image metadata attached to the volume (if present). This allows us
to know a bit more of the volume through the inherited properties of
the image from where it was created. This same image metadata is then
passed to the selected compute manager for processing the request.
Right now the compute manager completely ignores the image metadata
and tries to obtain it only if the instance is booted from an image.
This prevents us from obtaining some properties present in the volume
that might be needed while starting the instance (think about the
hw_disk_bus). Besides, it requires of an extra call to glance that can
be avoided.
