Hi, If you planned to use Swift to store the virtual images disk and run instance over Swift: it's not possible. If you planned to use swift for nova-volume (cinder) and attaching disk: it's also not possible. Swift is *NOT*: - a filesystem - a block device Perhaps, Swift can be use as a backend for Glance and of course object storage like S3. Someone correct me if I'm wrong. Cheers.
