Andreas Jaeger 4371ddd3f9 Give a full path for glance verification
Give a specific directory so that it's clear that this is not a
subdirectory of the Image store (/var/lib/glance).

Also, remove the created directory at the end to make it clear that this
is a temporary download.

<title>Verify the Image Service installation</title>
<para>To test the Image Service installation, download at least
one virtual machine image that is known to work with
OpenStack. For example, CirrOS is a small test image that is
often used for testing OpenStack deployments (<link
xlink:href="http://download.cirros-cloud.net/">CirrOS
downloads</link>). This walk through uses the 64-bit
CirrOS QCOW2 image.</para>
<para>For more information about how to download and build images,
see <link

Guide</citetitle></link>. For information about how to
manage images, see the <link

><citetitle>OpenStack User
Guide</citetitle></link>.</para>
<procedure>
<step>
<para>Download the image into a dedicated directory using
<command>wget</command> or
<command>curl</command>:</para>
<screen><prompt>$</prompt> <userinput>mkdir /tmp/images</userinput>
<prompt>$</prompt> <userinput>cd /tmp/images/</userinput>
<prompt>$</prompt> <userinput>wget http://cdn.download.cirros-cloud.net/0.3.2/cirros-0.3.2-x86_64-disk.img</userinput></screen>
</step>
<step>
<para>Upload the image to the Image Service:</para>
<para><screen><prompt>$</prompt> <userinput>glance image-create --name=<replaceable>IMAGELABEL</replaceable> --disk-format=<replaceable>FILEFORMAT</replaceable> \
--container-format=<replaceable>CONTAINERFORMAT</replaceable> --is-public=<replaceable>ACCESSVALUE</replaceable> &lt; <replaceable>IMAGEFILE</replaceable></userinput></screen></para>
<para>Where:</para>
<variablelist>
<varlistentry>
<term><literal><replaceable>IMAGELABEL</replaceable></literal></term>
<listitem>
<para>Arbitrary label. The name by which users
refer to the image.</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term><literal><replaceable>FILEFORMAT</replaceable></literal></term>
<listitem>
<para>Specifies the format of the image file.
Valid formats include
<literal>qcow2</literal>,
<literal>raw</literal>,
<literal>vhd</literal>,
<literal>vmdk</literal>,
<literal>vdi</literal>,
<literal>iso</literal>,
<literal>aki</literal>,
<literal>ari</literal>, and
<literal>ami</literal>.</para>
<para>You can verify the format using the
<command>file</command> command:
<screen><prompt>$</prompt> <userinput>file cirros-0.3.2-x86_64-disk.img</userinput>
<computeroutput>cirros-0.3.2-x86_64-disk.img: QEMU QCOW Image (v2), 41126400 bytes</computeroutput></screen></para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term><literal><replaceable>CONTAINERFORMAT</replaceable></literal></term>
<listitem>
<para>Specifies the container format. Valid
formats include: <literal>bare</literal>,
<literal>ovf</literal>,
<literal>aki</literal>,
<literal>ari</literal> and
<literal>ami</literal>.</para>
<para>Specify <literal>bare</literal> to
indicate that the image file is not in a
file format that contains metadata about
the virtual machine. Although this field
is currently required, it is not actually
used by any of the OpenStack services and
has no effect on system behavior. Because
the value is not used anywhere, it is safe
to always specify <literal>bare</literal>
as the container format.</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term><literal><replaceable>ACCESSVALUE</replaceable></literal></term>
<listitem>
<para>Specifies image access: <itemizedlist>
<listitem>
<para>true - All users can view and
use the image.</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>false - Only administrators
can view and use the image.</para>
</listitem>
</itemizedlist></para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term><literal><replaceable>IMAGEFILE</replaceable></literal></term>
<listitem>

<para>Because the returned image ID is generated
dynamically, your deployment generates a different
ID than the one shown in this example.</para>

<para>Confirm that the image was uploaded and display its
attributes:</para>

</step>
<step>
<para>
You can now remove the locally downloaded image, since it
is stored and available through the Image Service.
</para>
<screen><prompt>$</prompt> <userinput>rm -r /tmp/images</userinput></screen>
</step>
</procedure>
<para>Alternatively, the upload to the Image Service can be done without having to use local disk space to store the file, by use of the <parameter>--copy-from</parameter> parameter.</para>
<para>For example:</para>
<screen><prompt>$</prompt> <userinput>glance image-create --name="cirros-0.3.2-x86_64" --disk-format=qcow2 \
--container-format=bare --is-public=true \
