I have an openstack created instance running within my vmware compute node.
The vmdk boot image I used to create this instance, is stored in glance and contains the below disk properties: adapter type = lsiLogic disk type = sparse Now, if I use this image to boot an instance, all works as expected. No problems. If I create a volume with this image and try to boot from this volume, the hypervisor complains that no operating system is found. If I attach the volume to a running linux instance fdisk reports that no partition table is found. So I guess the question is, what step am I missing when I create a volume from a sparse vmdk image ? When I create a volume from a preallocated image, everything works fine. So some step is missing when using sparse images to create a working cinder volume. Thanks!
