Public bug reported:

Make a RAW image from some files:

virt-make-fs --type=ext4 --format=raw --size=+500M /tmp/tmpb3abEh /tmp/binary-9bHVxp.raw
glance -v -d  image-create --name my-binary-img-test --disk-format raw --container-format bare --file /tmp/binary-9bHVxp.raw
cinder  create --display-name my-test4 --image-id <glance-uuid> 7

This used to work fine on Kilo: 2015.1.0. On Kilo 2015.1.1 the volume
gets stuck in "Downloading"

cinder list --all-tenants

This is affecting several of our testbeds. A workaround is to use a QCOW2 image instead of RAW. This is not a solution as some setups have CEPH backed storage which don't play well with QCOW2 formats.
