Description Neha Chugh 2017-07-31 08:59:14 UTC
Description of problem:
Currently we can provision via glance image, but we require to deploy instances from images (create a new volume).

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
NA

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
We need a way so to provision vms via images ( create a new volume), here are few advantages of this:
    -Live-migration can be used.
    -Ceph CoW (Copy on Write) capabilities are used, so instances are deployed immediately.
    -Disk /dev/vda data is not stored on the compute node, is stored on the ceph cluster (using SDS capabilities as no SPoF, and distributed data).

If CloudForms can only deploy instances from image, all advantages described above cannot be used. So, this feature should be included as soon as possible on CF.


Actual results:
provisioned vms via glance image.

Expected results:

provisioned vms via glance image ( create a new volume).
