Title:
Can not create usable image in glance for vmdk images
Status in OpenStack Dashboard (Horizon):
Invalid
Bug description:
This is because the image needs to have two options: --property vmware_disktype="sparse" --property vmware_adaptertype="ide"
Horizon does not provide the capability set those options.
However, it can be created using glance CLI:
glance image-create --name xxxxx --is-public=True --container-format=bare --disk-format=vmdk --property --image-location http://172.19.11.252/SCP_VM_images/fedora-amd64.vmdk
The UI provided by https://blueprints.launchpad.net/horizon/+spec
/manage-image-custom-properties helps, but the scenario is still
perceived to be complex. A behavior is expected which provides the
user a UI to choose vmware properties, eg: vmware_disktype="sparse"
--property vmware_adaptertype="ide", when create image with vmdk
format.
