1. If you want a volume to create an image, the easiest way is to do so at
volume creation type by specifying that the volume source is an image rather
than empty. But, if you want to take an empty volume and place a bootable image
on it, you can attach the volume to a VM, login to the VM, and download (or
build up) a bootable image on that volume.
2. The bootable flag indicates that the volume likely contains a bootable
image. If you create a volume from an image, the bootable flag is set
automatically. If you set a volume to bootable when the volume contains no
bootable image (as you appear to have done), then you will get the error if you
try to boot it.
3. Uploading a volume to image (glance) is useful in a variety of
circumstances, but there is no requirement that the volume being upload is
bootable.

Title:
Create volume without source (empty volume)
Status in OpenStack Dashboard (Horizon):
Invalid
Bug description:
When create a new volume without source, the empty volume is not
bootable. then going to edit volume to change it to bootable and the
status of bootable in this volume is "YES".
1. Don't we have any button to add image to this empty
volume ?
2. When we launch new instance from this volume. This is
successful with status "active", but in the console we will see the infor : "
Booting from hard Disk... Boot failed: not a bootble disk .... No bootable
device"
---> so what does the status "YES" of bootable in the volume
mean?
3. we can create new volume, upload to image from above
volume. The new is unusable the same. what purpose for this flow?
