Bug Description
Description of problem:
=======
Using glance via CLI, a user may choose to use --location attribute.
Explanation about this important flag (taken from 'glance help image-create'):
--location <IMAGE_URL> URL where the data for this image already resides. For example,
if the image data is stored in the filesystem local to the glance server at
Example of usage via CLI:
glance image-create --name=F17_1 --disk-format=qcow2 --container-
This option is absent from horizon "Create Image" screen, and in my opinion its important that it will be present, for example: in a form of a check box.
Version-Release: Folsom
Horizon Version: python-
How reproducible: Irrelevant (RFE)
Hi Nir,
Can you recheck? I'm looking at the Folsom dashboard and I can see the "Image Location" field. At the moment using a remote URL is the only way to upload a clean image through the dashboard (i.e., there's no support for local file uploads, but that's planned for Grizzly).
