We use the Oz tool (see <a moz-do-not-send="true"

http://docs.openstack.org/image-guide/content/ch_creating_images_automatically.html#oz</a>)
to build images from scratch and then upload them to Glance. We
actually have scripts in place to do both those things
automatically each month and it works great for us. <br class="">

Thanks for those suggestions, unfortunately I'm in a

environment where I am not able to just throw out images
and software<br class="">
created by any random company and need to have admin teams
build the SOE<br class="">
according to very rigid rules.<br class="">
<br class="">
Can I ask once more, in this context, perhaps directed
more to the<br class="">
people who have very kindly contributed images so far, for
suggestions<br class="">
on what to read.<br class="">

Thanks again.<br class="">

I guess whom you want to create optimize images with
minimum size in<br class="">
order to register them in glance, like official images
size (e.g. Fedora<br class="">
image: ~151 MB ).<br class="">
<br class="">
However, you can't achieve that point of science until you
don't know<br class="">
what is FileSystem and How does it works.<br class="">
Read about these:<br class="">
<br class="">
* FileSystems<br class="">
o Ext4, Ext3, Ext2, XFS, JFS, ZFS, UnixFS<br class="">
o VFS, FUSE, inode, superblock<br class="">
<br class="">
<br class="">

Unrelated to the Glance Images building thing, but
Jose, I wanted to<br class="">

Eg how to take a windows/linux install and
