Bug Description

When using vCenter with OpenStack, images in Glance need to be created with the adapter type set to "lsiLogicsas". Below is an example from https://communities.vmware.com/thread/466539. Note "vmware_adaptertype" in the command below:

glance image-create --name=win2008cloud --property vmware_ostype=windows7Server64Guest --disk-format=vmdk --container-format=bare --is-public=true --property vmware_disktype="preallocated" --property vmware_adaptertype="lsiLogicsas" < win.vmdk

OpenStack docs for VMware should explicitly state this adapter type configuration.
