What is the glance image backend that you're using here? It's not that
the xen api virt driver is failing, glance is rejecting the image create
request - but what's the image backend in this case?

** Also affects: glance
   Importance: Undecided
       Status: New

** Changed in: nova
       Status: Triaged => Incomplete

** Summary changed:

- XenAPI: failed to create image from volume backed instance
+ XenAPI: failed to create image from volume backed instance with glance v2

  Per my analysis, it should be bug due to it hardcode the disk format as qcow2. 
  See: https://github.com/openstack/nova/blob/master/nova/compute/api.py#L2471
  At here, it cleans the disk_format and container_format

  Then:

  https://github.com/openstack/nova/blob/master//nova/image/glance.py#L651
  It will hardcode the disk_format as qcow2 which is not supported by XenAPI.

  nova/nova/image/glance.py
      def _create_v2(self, context, sent_service_image_meta, data=None,
                     force_activate=False):
          # Glance v1 allows image activation without setting disk and
          # container formats, v2 doesn't. It leads to the dirtiest workaround
          # where we have to hardcode this parameters.
          if force_activate:
              data = ''
              if 'disk_format' not in sent_service_image_meta:
                  sent_service_image_meta['disk_format'] = 'qcow2'
              if 'container_format' not in sent_service_image_meta:
                  sent_service_image_meta['container_format'] = 'bare'
