<p dir="auto">Volumes snap depends on the active instance, that means you don't need the base image afterwards.<br>
Just check all actives instances<br>
<code>select * from instances where deleted <> 1</code><br>
OR : <br>
<code>select image_id from instances where deleted = 0</code></p>

Subject: Re: [Openstack] Removing unused images using Glance APIs</p>
<p dir="auto">Hi. I think there is not any API for that unfortunately....<br>
But there is a field into the database that indicates the image ID. So if you select all active instances and select the unique images ID entries, you can compare them against the Glance images. A BASH script should be sufficient.</p>

Hallo All,</p>
<p dir="auto">In our testbed we have Openstack ESSEX. I am in the process of cleaning up the image store. Can I know are there any APIs in Glance or Nova that can help me in this process?</p>
