Cloned from launchpad blueprint https://blueprints.launchpad.net/heat/+spec/nova-server-snapshot.

Description:

From Clint on IRC:

Create a property called "SnapshotId".

Workflow would be to create a nova-server, put in a waitcondition to wait until the instance is started.  Once started the presence of a SnapshotId would automatically trigger an image snapshot.

Later an updatestack operation could change the ImageId for a server resource which would boot a fresh server with the proper snapshot.
