Btw, using

nova image-create --poll 4dcd5bb6-c65b-47dd-9c87-ba3fed624e22 "Instance"

works fine (nova command is run on 1st node), just it creates a new image and not a snapshot.

Best

From the dashboard i can successfully create snapshots of instances running on the controller but when i try to create a snapshot of an instance on a compute node i get in its logs:
