<DIV>dear all, </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>i have deployed openstack essex on ubuntu 12.04 precise, there are </DIV>
<DIV>some instances running for couple of days </DIV>
<DIV>now the server becomes unstable, so i want to save my instances' </DIV>
<DIV>snapshot to remote file system in order to use them in a new </DIV>
<DIV>environment. i find that there is no such command in glance, so what </DIV>
<DIV>should i do? </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>i guess i can achieve it by following steps: </DIV>
<DIV>1. snapshot instance </DIV>
<DIV>2. locate the snapshot file in /var/lib/glance/images/xxxxxxxxxxx </DIV>
<DIV>3. copy this file to a remote host </DIV>
<DIV>4. upload this file by 'glance add' as disk_format=qcow2 to a new </DIV>
<DIV>openstack environment </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>is it correct? and is there any convenient way? </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>thanks for any help </DIV>
