vdloo opened a new pull request #1363: OpenStack v2 create_volume can create bootable vol
URL: https://github.com/apache/libcloud/pull/1363
 
 
   This PR adds `ex_image_ref` to create_volume for the
   OpenStack_2_NodeDriver. This allows the user to create
   bootable volumes based on machine images. When the UUID
   of an image is passed as ImageRef it will create a bootable
   volume from which later an instance can be launched. This is
   helpful because for older versions of OpenStack it is not
   possible to create an instance with a block device mapping
   where the newly created volume has to be put in a availability
   zone that is not the default.
   
   More info about bootable volumes at https://docs.openstack.org/api-ref/block-storage/v2/index.html?expanded=create-volume-detail#volumes-volumes
   
   > To create a bootable volume, include the UUID of the image from which
   > you want to create the volume in the imageRef attribute in the request
   > body.
