Yep, this bug is still actual. Resize, migration and so on does not work if original image is deleted. And 'I will never remove any public image' will not helps, because if user restore instance from snapshot and remove snapshot it will cause error too. That looks stupid in the light of (our) raw disk format, where 'base copy' just never used.

Error is harmless and can be fixed by

nova reset-state --active UUID
(optionally)
nova stop UUID
nova start UUID

But it's still annoying because user can not fix it own instance without administrator intervention.

We have plans to fix it for havana (it cause disturbance for as and inconvenience for our customers), but fix will not be accepted by upstream (they drops upstream support ASAP), so I think we should switch to old-style maillist based patch RFC.

Hi,

Please note the issue reported in https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bug/1160773: "Cannot resize instance if base image is not available"

AFAIK it is still the case that instances cannot be resized or migrated
once the image from which it has been created has been deleted.

  cheers, Jan

Right, and I think the best thing about marking a deprecated image private is that new instances can’t select that image unless the tenant is an image-member of it. So if a specific tenant has some “real valid” need to use the old version (I can’t imagine why), they could find it in “Project Images” instead of “Public”.

Hello,

Yes, I agree that this is not big problem when there is info "Image not found" in horizon but I saw this discussion and I thought that I will ask about that
:) It would be nice to have some other info like for example: "Image 1
(archived)" or something like that :)

I've never worried about "Image not Found", as its only a UI concern. IMO it lets the users know something has changed. Totally optional, and the same effect can be gained by just renaming it -OLD and leaving it public.
At some point, it still needs to be removed.

Hello,

I use Your solution and I made old images as private in such change but
then
there is one more problem: all instances spawned from that old images are
have
in horizon info about image: "not found".
Do You maybe know how to solve that?

You are correct, deleted images are not deleted from the DB, rather
their
row has ‘deleted=1’, so specifying the UUID of another image already in
glance for a new image being upload will end in tears.

What I was trying to convey was, when Christian is uploading a new image

of

the same name as an existing image, the UUID will be different. IMO, the
correct process should be:
1. Make desired changes to your image.
2. Rename the existing image (e.g. Fedora-20-OLD)
3. (optional) Make the old image private ( is-public 0 )
4. Upload the new image using the desired name (e.g. Fedora-20 or like
Fedora-20-LATEST )

Obviously I assume there was testing for viability of the image before
it
was uploaded to glance.

For more information, be sure to catch my talk on Tuesday 9am at the

summit.

Glance images are immutable. In order to update it, you should do as

one.
Take note of the UUID as well.

like

it is not working at all.

First I upload a test image:

---snip---
# dd if=/dev/urandom of=testing.img bs=1M count=10
# glance image-create --disk-format raw --container-format bare
--name
TESTING --file testing.img
---snap---

Now I want to overwrite the contents of this image:

---snip---
# dd if=/dev/urandom of=testing.img bs=1M count=20
# glance image-update --file testing.img TESTING
---snap---

After this call the size of the image is still the same like before
(10485760 bytes).

I do not have issues in the logfiles of glance-api and

glance-registry.

What am I doing wrong?

Is it not possible to update the contents of an image?

Christian.
