Interoperable image import

**************************

An interoperable image import process is introduced in the Pike release

as part of the EXPERIMENTAL Image API v2.6.

An interoperable image import process is introduced in the Image API v2.6.
|

|
||||
*This EXPERIMENTAL API is optional and may not be enabled in your
|
||||
cloud. Consult your cloud operator's documentation for details.*
|
||||
|
||||
In version 2.5 of the API, these calls return a 404 (Not Found).
|
||||
Use the :ref:`API versions call <versions-call>` to determine
|
||||
what API verisons are available in your cloud.
|
||||
|
||||
.. note::
|
||||
This EXPERIMENTAL API is subject to change. It is a partial implementation
|
||||
of what's described in the Glance design document `Image Import Refactor`_.
|
||||
We expect any changes to be expansive and to be in accord with what's
|
||||
described in that document, but we are releasing version 2.6 in
|
||||
EXPERIMENTAL status in the Pike release so that we can reserve the right to
|
||||
make backward-incompatible changes in light of feedback from users and
|
||||
operators. Our intent is that these calls will be finalized before the
|
||||
Queens release and the EXPERIMENTAL status will be lifted at that time.
