Compute relies on an external image service to store virtual machine images and maintain a catalog of available images. By default, Compute is configured to use the Image service (glance), which is currently the only supported image service.

Note

The common configurations for shared service and libraries, such as database connections and RPC messaging, are described at common-configurations.

To customize the Compute service, use the configuration option settings documented in nova-glance.

You can modify many options in the Image service. The following tables provide a comprehensive list.
