<p><font size="2" face="sans-serif">Misunderstand you question.</font><br>
<font size="2" face="sans-serif">If you are looking for OpenStack VM image store, you should look at Glance which provides image API and registry service.</font><br>
<font size="2" face="sans-serif">Swift can be used as one of the backends of Glance. It can be configured in /etc/glance/glance-api.conf. You can see the</font><br>
<font size="2" face="sans-serif">detailed explanation in that sample file. Swift certainly can be used pure object store, without knowing VM image metadata.</font><br>
<br>
<font size="2" face="sans-serif">if you want tenants to use their own image store, you should enable multi tenant mode by setting swift_store_multi_tenant =True.</font><br>
<font size="2" face="sans-serif">here is some paste FYI. </font><br>
