[Bug 1819760] [NEW] Update documentation for sharing images

 

Public bug reported:

The steps on this page

https://docs.openstack.org/image-guide/share-images.html#sharing-an-
image

do not take into consideration an image that was created by taking a
nova snapshot from a volume backed instance. When this is done the image
is actually stored as a snapshot under the source volume. In that
scenario, it is also necessary to transfer the cinder volume (and
snapshots).

https://docs.openstack.org/cinder/latest/cli/cli-manage-volumes.html

Without transferring the cinder volume (and snapshots), an error is
reported about missing volume when an instance is launched from this
shared image.

Block Device Mapping is Invalid: failed to get snapshot xxxxxxx-xxxxxx-
xxxxx-xxxxxx. (HTTP 400) (Request-ID: req-xxxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-
xxxxxxxxxx)
