Glance-image-recover

Revision as of 07:38, 20 November 2013 by Fei Long Wang (talk | contribs) (General Workflow)

Overview

This proposal aims to recover an image which is in 'pending-delete' state so as to provide the revert capability for the purposes of allowing emergency operational action to recover from an accidental delete

General Workflow

  1. The 'delayed_delete' config entry is enabled in glance-api.conf
  2. Delete the specific image
  3. List the images which are 'pending-delete'
  4. User PUT /v2/images/{image-uuid} on the requested image to recover it
  5. Eventually, the requested image should be in 'active' state after recovering successfully.

Known code impact

1. List pending-delete image 2. Only allow 'active' image to be in 'pending-delete'
