Public bug reported:

Hi,

We have recently upgraded our platform from ussuri to Yoga. We are now
facing a problem that we were not before.

When uploading vmdk images via glance we are now getting this error
glance.common.format_inspector.ImageFormatError: Unsupported VMDK format b'streamOptimized'

Is this normal? Even when we upload a standard vmdk from https://cloud-
images.ubuntu.com/releases/22.04/release/ubuntu-22.04-server-cloudimg-
amd64.vmdk we get the error.

We see that this file format_inspector.py did not exist in Ussuri. What
is the main reason for calling this file?

We actually do not even use vmdk in our platform. Once they are uploaded
to glance we automatically convert them to raw. Now we cannot even
upload a vmdk to glance.

This seems to be an issue as we did not have this problem in ussuri.

Let me know if you have any questions.

Regards,

Alex
