Add a new option of ``image_handler`` in the ``xenapi`` section for
|
|
configuring the image handler plugin which will be used by XenServer
|
|
to download or upload images. The value for this option should be a
|
|
short name representing a supported handler.
|
|
|
|
The following are the short names and description of the plugins which
|
|
they represent:
|
|
|
|
* ``direct_vhd``
|
|
|
|
This plugin directly processes the VHD files in XenServer SR(Storage
|
|
Repository). So this plugin only works when the host's SR type is
|
|
file system based e.g. ext, nfs. This is the default plugin.
|
|
|
|
* ``vdi_local_dev``
|
|
|
|
This plugin implements an image upload method which attaches the VDI
|
|
as a local disk in the VM in which the OpenStack Compute service runs.
|
|
It uploads the raw disk to glance when creating an image; When booting
|
|
an instance from a glance image, it downloads the image and streams it
|
|
into the disk which is attached to the compute VM.
|
|
|
|
deprecations:
|
|
- |
|
|
The ``image_upload_handler`` option in the ``xenserver`` conf section
|
|
has been deprecated. Please use the new option of ``image_handler`` to
|
|
configure the image handler which is used to download or upload images.
