1. Proposed title of this feature request  
      Allow some easy way to move instance from one Openstack Environment to other. 

3. What is the nature and description of the request?  
Currently its possible to move instance from one env to other with following workaround:
- Create snapshot of instance using `nova image-create` command which will upload the new image to glance.
- download the new image from glance server.
- copy/scp it to the other Openstack env and upload the image to glance. Deploy new instance using uploaded image.
