Open Stack

Ok, that works perfectly!!

Thanks!

But, where does the image get saved????  I expected to see a new img file created and I can't seem to find it.

Thanks for your patience!

I have a copy of devstack  up and running ad have been experimenting with it.

I would like to capture a checkpoint of the cirros image before I run my next experiment.

You create snapshot your running instance into a new image. You can then start a new instance from that image.
>From the dashboard, see: http://docs.openstack.org/user-guide/content/instance_snapshots.html

usage: nova image-create [--poll] <server> <name>

Create a new image by taking a snapshot of a running server.

Positional arguments:
  <server>  Name or ID of server.
  <name>    Name of snapshot.

Optional arguments:
  --poll    Blocks while instance snapshots so progress can be reported.
