Public bug reported: Horizon offers the opportunity to create a volume from a snapshot. It does not, however, properly determine the type of the originating volume of the snapshot and tries to use the default. In environments with non- default storage types (e.g. encrypted storages, like in our case), this fails and leads to an error message:

(HTTP 400) (Request-ID: req- 40ee2f61-6a16-44f2-96d7-46f5c42f1942) Problematic code is in cinder/forms.py of Horizon: https://github.com/openstack/horizon/blob/master/openstack_dashboard/dashboards/project/volumes/forms.py#L379 Under normal circumstances, the storage type should be set in that file in "prepare_source_fields_if_snapshot_specified" (https://github.com/openstack/horizon/blob/master/openstack_dashboard/dashboards/project/volumes/forms.py#L145) That code would need to be triggered in the __init__ function of CreateForm (https://github.com/openstack/horizon/blob/master/openstack_dashboard/dashboards/project/volumes/forms.py#L297) which tests the GET of the original request for certain strings. Debugging however, unveils that GET simply does not contain any of the strings checked for there anymore -- in our case, it always was "<WSGIRequest: GET '/dashboard/project/volumes/create/'>". So in fact, the whole code path starting at https://github.com/openstack/horizon/blob/master/openstack_dashboard/dashboards/project/volumes/forms.py#L314 might be death and the default will always be used. The default doesn't populate "type", however, This of course also leads to creating volumes from volumes not working due to the same issue. ** Affects: horizon Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Yahoo!
