[Bug 1577821] Re: User cannot set arbitary IDs for images

 

@Asad:

It seems that this is a feature request. Feature requests for nova are
done with blueprints [1] and with specs [2]. I'll recommend to read [3]
if not yet done. To focus here on bugs which are a failures/errors/faults
I close this one as "Opinion". The effort to implement the requested
feature is then driven only by the blueprint (and spec).

If there are any questions left, feel free to contact me (markus_z)
in the IRC channel #openstack-nova

Title:
  User cannot set arbitary IDs for images

Status in Glance:
  New
Status in OpenStack Compute (nova):
  Opinion

Bug description:
  The glance command line enables user to supply ID for the image
  while creating it using the`glance image-create` command.

  However, the backend imposes that the ID of an image be a UUID.

  There is no meaning of letting user supply ID as parameter, if the ID
  needs to be a UUID.
  User should be able to set custom ID for images as per need.

  Also, the regular expression for the image ID is hard coded in the
  backend. It will be nice if it is configurable in `schema-image.json`
