OpenStack Compute Administration Manual: invalid option in glance command

[Marco CONSONNI]

The instruction for uploading images I found here http://docs.openstack.org/trunk/openstack-compute/admin/content/manually-creating-qcow2-images.html#d6e5429 is:

glance image-create name="${NAME}" is_public=true container_format=ovf disk_format=raw < ${IMAGE}

It does not work.

It should read as:

glance image-create name="${NAME}" is-public=true container-format=ovf disk-format=raw < ${IMAGE}

(hyphens substitute underscores)

I haven't verified the whole document; I suggest to check other parts that could contain the same error.

Thanks Marco.

Which version of OpenStack are you using?

[Marco CONSONNI (marco-consonni)]

Hi Tom,

I originally used Folsom stable release, then I tried again with the latest version.
Same result.
For your information, I used devstack for downloading the code in both the tests.

For more information, the version of nova CLI in the package I used for the second test (the test with the latest code version) is 2.8.0.11.
I obtained nova CLI version by typing

   nova --version

Unfortunately I can't provide glance CLI's version because it does not support --version option.
I'm going to open a bug on this.

Thanks Marco!

This bug has been fixed in the latest version of the document:

glance image-create name="${NAME}" --is-public=true --container-format=ovf --disk-format=raw < ${IMAGE}
