Dear bug triager. This bug was created since a commit was marked with DOCIMPACT.
Your project "openstack/glance" is set up so that we directly report the documentation bugs against it. If this needs changing, the docimpact-group option needs to be added for the project. You can ask the OpenStack infra team (#openstack-infra on freenode) for help if you need to.

    Add 'vhdx' disk format.
    
    This patch adds the Hyper-V 'vhdx' disk format to the Glance
    configuration. This allows users to upload 'vhdx' images by default.
    
    'vhdx' disks can have much larger storage capacity than the older 'vhd'
    format [1].  (Plus, anything with 'x' in the name is awesome.)
    
    DocImpact: Docs will need to be updated to indicate that the 'vhdx'
    disk_format is now one of the default disk formats supported by Glance.
    
    UpgradeImpact: Adds 'vhdx' to the default list of disk_formats.  Operators
    will no longer need to configure specifically to use 'vhdx' disks.
