Description Abhishek Kekane 2019-10-04 05:37:02 UTC

Glance v2 API currently supports configuring multiple stores. However user/admin/operator can upload image to ony one store at a time. The workflow to copy the image bits to secondary locations for a single image requires the operator / admin to manually copy those image bits and then use the glance API to add the new location to the image.

Glance should provide a way to asynchronously move or replicate images between stores through Images API eliminating the role of admin/operator doing so.
