Hello, this is my full code to create a snapshot from an instance.

The code creates a new image with type snapshot, but after around 2 hours, its status is still in queue.

But when I create another snapshot via the Openstack UI, it works fine.

Would you please help me how can I create a snapshot?

import openstack

import datetime

now = datetime.datetime.now()

today = now.strftime('%Y_%m_%d_%H_%M_%S')

openstack.enable_logging(debug=False)

servers = []

images = []

openstack_connection = openstack.connect(cloud='region1') # clouds.yaml

for server in openstack_connection.compute.servers(details=True, hostname='my_server'):

    servers.append(server.to_dict())

servers = servers[0]

for image in openstack_connection.compute.images(details=True, id=servers['image']['id']):

    images.append(image.to_dict())

images = images[0]

name = f'my_server_{today}'

openstack_connection.image.create_image(

    name=name,

    disk_format='raw',

    container_format='bare',

    visibility='private',

    timeout=1,

    properties={

        'hw_disk_bus': 'scsi',
