Possible cause and recommendationSymptom
• After you upload a Windows image using the Add Image screen in the
CloudSystem Console, use the Glance CLI to set the attributes on the file.
On a Windows or Linux system where the OpenStack CLI package for
CloudSystem is installed, enter the following command, where
Windows-image.vmdk is the name of your Windows image to update:
glance --insecure image-update --name <Windows-image.vmdk> --property
vmware_ostype=windows8Server64Guest --property vmware_adaptertype=lsiLogicsas
• When you use the OpenStack Glance CLI to upload the image, you can
set the attributes and upload the image at the same time.
On a Windows or Linux system where you installed the OpenStack CLI
package for CloudSystem and which contains the image to upload, enter
the following command, where Windows-image.vmdk is the name of the
Windows image, and new-Windows-image.vmdk is the name of the
modified image that is uploaded to CloudSystem:
glance --insecure image-create --name <Windows-image.vmdk> --disk-format=vmdk
--container-format=bare --file <new-Windows-image>.vmdk --property
vmware_ostype=windows8Server64Guest --property vmware_adaptertype=lsiLogicsas

Software.
Disk space allocated for image is full
1. Increase the storage volume by expanding the logical volume for the
storage file system, or clean up used disk space.
Image to be uploaded has the same identifier as another image
1. If there are duplicate identifiers, delete one image or create a new image
with a different (unique) identifier.
Now retry the Add Image action.
When uploading an image, Error
adding image is displayed
If the error persists, download and check log files. From the Settings screen,
select Actions→Download audit logs.
The image upload was only partially completed due to browser
upload size limits
This might be the source of the problem if:
The size of the uploaded image is smaller
than expected on the Images screen
• The image file is more than 4 GB and your browser is Microsoft Internet
Explorer or Mozilla Firefox
• The image file is more than 20 GB and your browser is Google Chrome
In this situation,
1. Manually delete the image using the Delete action, which deletes the
image entry from the database.
2. Place the image on a file server.
3. Retry the Add Image action and Enter file URL. This option allows you to
add a pointer to the image on the file server, which will be used to locate
the image during provisioning.
You specifed the URL of a folder that does not contain an image
file
When you upload an image in the CloudSystem Console, the OpenStack
Image Service (Glance) allows you to specify the URL of a folder that does
not contain an image file. A warning or error message is not displayed.
After adding an image, you created an
instance from the image. The instance
has an Active state but a 0 size
• Delete the image that is a folder instead of a file, and add the correct
image using the Add Image screen, or
• Add the correct image by entering the following command on Windows
or Linux system where the OpenStack CLI package for CloudSystem is
installed.
