_create_image method supports two types of images - image_snapshot and
image_backup
These two are mostly identical except for few places (like checking for
rotation etc.)
Neither Dashboard (Horizon UI) nor "nova" command line tool have option to
perform "image_backup"
Both these only invoke "image_snapshot"
How does the *end user* use the image_backup functionality ?
(Found @wsgi.action('createBackup') in
nova/api/openstack/compute/contrib/admin_actions.py - Not sure how end user
invokes this)
Is image_backup officially supported feature ? If yes, is this API-only feature
?
