The request cannot be fulfilled as the default volume type purestorage-array-pa3 cannot be found.

[Vijay Kumar]

The request cannot be fulfilled as the default volume type purestorage-array-pa3 cannot be found.

Created the volume type for pure storage

  $openstack volume type create purestore-pa3
  $openstack volume type set --property volume_backend_name=purestorage-array-pa3 purestore-pa3

Created normal Volume, works fine

  $openstack volume create --type purestore-pa3 --size 10 non-bootable

Created bootable volume using image, work fine

  $openstack volume create --type purestore-pa3 --size 10 --image jammy bootable-vol3

Attached the volume to the instances and created the instance using the bootable volume works fine

But when creating the instance using the below the instance gets the below error on nova-cocmpute.log

“The request cannot be fulfilled as the default volume type purestorage-array-pa3 cannot be found”

I am using the below command to create an instance

openstack server create --image jammy --network ext-net --flavor m1.small --user-data user-data --boot-from-volume 15 jammyboot1
