Andrew, For OpenStack providers, SmartState uses the Glance API to access the data we require, so I can't see how SmartState does not work with Glance storage. Did the SmartState task in question fail? If so, what was the error? If the SmartState task didn't fail, did it fail to retrieve the file: /etc/ssh/sshd_config? If the SSA task didn't fail, then the issue isn't with Glance storage, but there could be an issue in retrieving the file in question.
