Thanks. In queens hw_qemu_guest_agent is not considerated for v olumes because it belongs to "libvirt driver option for images". It is a problem for starting instance from backupped volumes :-( Ignazio

Hello, is it possible to force metadata for instances like the following
?
hw_qemu_guest_agent='yes' os_require_quiesce='yes'
I know if an instance is created from an image with the above metadata
the quemu-guest-agent works, but sometimes
instances can start from volumes ( for example after a cnder backup).
if you are using a recent version of cinder/nova the image metadata is copied to the volume. i don't know if that is in queens or not but the only other way to force it that i can think of would be via the flavor. unfortunately the guest agnet is not supported in the flavor
