f a task flow isn't being utilized to automatically convert qcow2 images to raw images on the glance backend, the user must upload raw images to RBD-back glance pools. It would be nice if the RBD glance store would support skipping fully zeroed blocks when importing the image to the RBD pool. There's no conversion happening on the Glance side. The work on automatic image conversion has been put on hold upstream. As far as the RBD store goes, I guess it could be improved but I'm not very familiar with it or the improvement proposed here. I'd recommend writing a spec and bringing it upstream. Indeed, you could probably copy/paste that on the glance_store upstream bug tracker, and see what people think about this. This looks like a huge feature. Closing upstream accourdingly with http://tracker.ceph.com/issues/17178 Sean |
