Public bug reported:

I followed by OpenStack Configuration reference[1], download the cloud image[2]
and convert to vmdk:

$ qemu-img convert -f qcow2 trusty-server-cloudimg-amd64-disk1.img -O
vmdk ubuntu.vmdk

and then use glance image-create command to upload image:

$ glance image-create --name "ubuntu-thick-scsi" --is-public True --disk-format vmdk --container-format bare --property vmware_adaptertype="lsiLogic"  \  
   --property vmware_disktype="preallocated" --property vmware_ostype="ubuntu64Guest" < ubuntu.vmdk

I created an instance in dashboard successful,  But it failed to enter guest system.
I doubt the instance does not have a controller to support scsi disk, when using ide , instance runs well.
