Public bug reported: The "Disk and container formats for images" section of the "VM Image Guide" in the openstack-manuals repo has gotten out date with respect to Glance image format changes. Additionally, it duplicates some information from documentation maintained by the Glance team.
To make the docs easier to maintain, we should make these changes: (1) rewrite the Introduction page of the VM Image Guide so that it discusses the concept of "container format" and "disk format". Don't discuss the set of identifiers that Glance recognizes in the manual; instead, give a link to the appropriate place in the glance docs. Remove the two sub-pages (image-formats.rst and image-metadata.rst). (2) merge the content from openstack-manuals/image-formats.rst and openstack-manuals/image-metadata.rst into docs/user/formats.rst in the glance repo ** Affects: glance Importance: Low Assignee: Brian Rosmaita (brian-rosmaita) Status: Triaged ** Affects: openstack-manuals Importance: Undecided Assignee: Brian Rosmaita (brian-rosmaita) Status: In Progress ** Also affects: openstack-manuals Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: openstack-manuals Assignee: (unassigned) => Brian Rosmaita (brian-rosmaita) ** Changed in: openstack-manuals Status: New => In Progress -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Yahoo!
