Other OpenStack services which instantiate a 'https' glanceclient using ssl_compression=False and insecure=False (eg Nova, Cinder) are leaking sockets due to glanceclient not closing the connection to the Glance server. This could happen for a sub-set of calls, eg 'show', 'delete', 'update'. netstat -nopd would show the sockets would hang around forever: ... 127.0.0.1:9292 ESTABLISHED 9552/python off (0.00/0/0) urllib's ConnectionPool relies on the garbage collector to tear down sockets which are no longer in use. The 'verify_callback' function used to validate SSL certs was holding a reference to the VerifiedHTTPSConnection instance which prevented the sockets being torn down.

Python bindings to the OpenStack Images API
This is a client library for Glance built on the OpenStack Images
API. It provides a Python API (the glanceclient module) and
a command-line tool (glance). This library fully supports
the v1 Images API, while support for the v2 API is in progress.
Development takes place via the usual OpenStack processes as outlined in the OpenStack wiki. The master repository is on GitHub.
