[jira] [Commented] (VCL-590) Openstack Essex Module

["Young-Hyun (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/VCL-590?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13290213#comment-13290213 ] 

Young-Hyun commented on VCL-590:
--------------------------------

I've uploaded two prototype versions of Openstack Modules: 

1. Openstack module using euca2ool
: It does not support the capture function due to the issue on 'euca-create-image' on Openstack Essex.
: Install euca2ool on your VCL management node

2. Openstack module using Nova APIs
: It supports both reservation and capture functions. 
: The file format for virtual machines must be "qcow2" file format for capture because nova image-create use "qemu-img snapshot" that does not support 'raw' file format of images.
: Install python-novaclient on your VCL management node

I've created one table for mapping openstack image name (uuid) to vcl image name (more readable)  but it's not necessary.
