</div>Correct. Here are some options:<br>
<br>
a) query the db directly for the mapping<br>
<br>
b) write an api extension to nova that exposes the mapping<br>
<br>
c) write an external utility that syncs the info from the nova db into glance metadata<br>
<br>
d) modify horizon to list images through the ec2 api instead of glance<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>I guess d) depends on b), since we cannot assume horizon is running on the same machine as the nova-api service.<br>
<br></div></div></div></div></blockquote><br></div><div>Not really. The ec2 api exposes ec2_style ids instead of uuids. It seems better to just provide one view of ids to your users. If you are suggesting they use the ec2 api then the uuids may not be needed.</div><div><br></div><div>Vish</div><br></body></html>
