[Ivan Kolodyazhny]

According to bug #1568898 [1] we have to upload TestVM image in raw format in case, when both Cinder and Glance use Ceph back-end

The TestVM image is about 10-20 MBs in size. Do we really care here, if Cinder automatically performs conversion when needed? (based on the description of https://bugs.launchpad.net/mos/+bug/1568898)

[Ivan Kolodyazhny (e0ne)]

IMO, we have to do it because we test with this image in scale. Also, we have to follow our own guidelines in deployment

[Dina Belova (dbelova)]

This looks as medium issue to be fixed for test purposes. Due to medium priority, marking as won't fix for 9.0

Puppet installs cirros image from the debian package http://perestroika-repo-tst.infra.mirantis.net/mos-repos/ubuntu/master/pool/main/c/cirros-testvm/ and that's it. I think this problem should be addressed to MOS Linux team

[Dmitry Teselkin (teselkin-d)]

testvm package have no idea about how the image will be used further, so adding the same image repackaged in another format isn't a solution here. Converting to raw should be done conditionally from puppet.

[Denis Egorenko (degorenko)]

I agree with Ivan: puppet should not convert any existed resource to a new format. From my POV, the most appropriate solution is to fix nailgun (update astute.yaml if ceph is enabled with addition RAW image info) and add RAW image to cirros-testvm package or add new cirros-testvm-raw package.

Otherwise, puppet-convert solution looks like hardcode.
