Change the endpoint to represent the proxy URL if the API service is running behind a proxy. If the service is running behind a load balancer, add the load balancer’s URL for this value.
- Possible values:
None
Proxy URL
Load balancer URL
- Related options:
None
- allow_additional_image_properties¶
- Type:
boolean
- Default:
True
Allow users to add additional/custom properties to images.
Glance defines a standard set of properties (in its schema) that appear on every image. These properties are also known as
base properties
. In addition to these properties, Glance allows users to add custom properties to images. These are known asadditional properties
.By default, this configuration option is set to
True
and users are allowed to add additional properties. The number of additional properties that can be added to an image can be controlled viaimage_property_quota
configuration option.- Possible values:
True
False
- Related options:
image_property_quota
Warning
This option is deprecated for removal since Ussuri. Its value may be silently ignored in the future.
- Reason:
This option is redundant. Control custom image property usage via the ‘image_property_quota’ configuration option. This option is scheduled to be removed during the Victoria development cycle.
- hashing_algorithm¶
- Type:
string
- Default:
sha512
Secure hashing algorithm used for computing the ‘os_hash_value’ property.
This option configures the Glance “multihash”, which consists of two image properties: the ‘os_hash_algo’ and the ‘os_hash_value’. The ‘os_hash_algo’ will be populated by the value of this configuration option, and the ‘os_hash_value’ will be populated by the hexdigest computed when the algorithm is applied to the uploaded or imported image data.
The value must be a valid secure hash algorithm name recognized by the python ‘hashlib’ library. You can determine what these are by examining the ‘hashlib.algorithms_available’ data member of the version of the library being used in your Glance installation. For interoperability purposes, however, we recommend that you use the set of secure hash names supplied by the ‘hashlib.algorithms_guaranteed’ data member because those algorithms are guaranteed to be supported by the ‘hashlib’ library on all platforms. Thus, any image consumer using ‘hashlib’ locally should be able to verify the ‘os_hash_value’ of the image.
The default value of ‘sha512’ is a performant secure hash algorithm.
If this option is misconfigured, any attempts to store image data will fail. For that reason, we recommend using the default value.
- Possible values:
Any secure hash algorithm name recognized by the Python ‘hashlib’ library
- Related options:
None
- image_member_quota¶
- Type:
integer
- Default:
128
Maximum number of image members per image.
This limits the maximum of users an image can be shared with. Any negative value is interpreted as unlimited.
- Related options:
None
- image_property_quota¶
- Type:
integer
- Default:
128
Maximum number of properties allowed on an image.
This enforces an upper limit on the number of additional properties an image can have. Any negative value is interpreted as unlimited.
NOTE: This won’t have any impact if additional properties are disabled. Please refer to
allow_additional_image_properties
.- Related options:
allow_additional_image_properties
- image_tag_quota¶
- Type:
integer
- Default:
128
Maximum number of tags allowed on an image.
Any negative value is interpreted as unlimited.
- Related options:
None
- image_location_quota¶
- Type:
integer
- Default:
10
Maximum number of locations allowed on an image.
Any negative value is interpreted as unlimited.
- Related options:
None
- limit_param_default¶
- Type:
integer
- Default:
25
- Minimum Value:
1
The default number of results to return for a request.
Responses to certain API requests, like list images, may return multiple items. The number of results returned can be explicitly controlled by specifying the
limit
parameter in the API request. However, if alimit
parameter is not specified, this configuration value will be used as the default number of results to be returned for any API request.- NOTES:
The value of this configuration option may not be greater than the value specified by
api_limit_max
.Setting this to a very large value may slow down database queries and increase response times. Setting this to a very low value may result in poor user experience.
- Possible values:
Any positive integer
- Related options:
api_limit_max
- api_limit_max¶
- Type:
integer
- Default:
1000
- Minimum Value:
1
Maximum number of results that could be returned by a request.
As described in the help text of
limit_param_default
, some requests may return multiple results. The number of results to be returned are governed either by thelimit
parameter in the request or thelimit_param_default
configuration option. The value in either case, can’t be greater than the absolute maximum defined by this configuration option. Anything greater than this value is trimmed down to the maximum value defined here.- NOTE: Setting this to a very large value may slow down database
queries and increase response times. Setting this to a very low value may result in poor user experience.
- Possible values:
Any positive integer
- Related options:
limit_param_default
- show_image_direct_url¶
- Type:
boolean
- Default:
False
Show direct image location when returning an image.
This configuration option indicates whether to show the direct image location when returning image details to the user. The direct image location is where the image data is stored in backend storage. This image location is shown under the image property
direct_url
.When multiple image locations exist for an image, the best location is displayed based on the location strategy indicated by the configuration option
location_strategy
.- NOTES:
Revealing image locations can present a GRAVE SECURITY RISK as image locations can sometimes include credentials. Hence, this is set to
False
by default. Set this toTrue
with EXTREME CAUTION and ONLY IF you know what you are doing!If an operator wishes to avoid showing any image location(s) to the user, then both this option and
show_multiple_locations
MUST be set toFalse
.
- Possible values:
True
False
- Related options:
show_multiple_locations
location_strategy
- show_multiple_locations¶
- Type:
boolean
- Default:
False
Show all image locations when returning an image.
This configuration option indicates whether to show all the image locations when returning image details to the user. When multiple image locations exist for an image, the locations are ordered based on the location strategy indicated by the configuration opt
location_strategy
. The image locations are shown under the image propertylocations
.- NOTES:
Revealing image locations can present a GRAVE SECURITY RISK as image locations can sometimes include credentials. Hence, this is set to
False
by default. Set this toTrue
with EXTREME CAUTION and ONLY IF you know what you are doing!See https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/OSSN/OSSN-0065 for more information.
If an operator wishes to avoid showing any image location(s) to the user, then both this option and
show_image_direct_url
MUST be set toFalse
.
- Possible values:
True
False
- Related options:
show_image_direct_url
location_strategy
Warning
This option is deprecated for removal since Newton. Its value may be silently ignored in the future.
- Reason:
Use of this option, deprecated since Newton, is a security risk and will be removed once we figure out a way to satisfy those use cases that currently require it. An earlier announcement that the same functionality can be achieved with greater granularity by using policies is incorrect. You cannot work around this option via policy configuration at the present time, though that is the direction we believe the fix will take. Please keep an eye on the Glance release notes to stay up to date on progress in addressing this issue.
- image_size_cap¶
- Type:
integer
- Default:
1099511627776
- Minimum Value:
1
- Maximum Value:
9223372036854775808
Maximum size of image a user can upload in bytes.
An image upload greater than the size mentioned here would result in an image creation failure. This configuration option defaults to 1099511627776 bytes (1 TiB).
- NOTES:
This value should only be increased after careful consideration and must be set less than or equal to 8 EiB (9223372036854775808).
This value must be set with careful consideration of the backend storage capacity. Setting this to a very low value may result in a large number of image failures. And, setting this to a very large value may result in faster consumption of storage. Hence, this must be set according to the nature of images created and storage capacity available.
- Possible values:
Any positive number less than or equal to 9223372036854775808
- user_storage_quota¶
- Type:
string
- Default:
0
Maximum amount of image storage per tenant.
This enforces an upper limit on the cumulative storage consumed by all images of a tenant across all stores. This is a per-tenant limit.
The default unit for this configuration option is Bytes. However, storage units can be specified using case-sensitive literals
B
,KB
,MB
,GB
andTB
representing Bytes, KiloBytes, MegaBytes, GigaBytes and TeraBytes respectively. Note that there should not be any space between the value and unit. Value0
signifies no quota enforcement. Negative values are invalid and result in errors.This has no effect if
use_keystone_limits
is enabled.- Possible values:
A string that is a valid concatenation of a non-negative integer representing the storage value and an optional string literal representing storage units as mentioned above.
- Related options:
use_keystone_limits
- use_keystone_limits¶
- Type:
boolean
- Default:
False
Utilize per-tenant resource limits registered in Keystone.
Enabling this feature will cause Glance to retrieve limits set in keystone for resource consumption and enforce them against API users. Before turning this on, the limits need to be registered in Keystone or all quotas will be considered to be zero, and thus reject all new resource requests.
These per-tenant resource limits are independent from the static global ones configured in this config file. If this is enabled, the relevant static global limits will be ignored.
- pydev_worker_debug_host¶
- Type:
host address
- Default:
localhost
This option has a sample default set, which means that its actual default value may vary from the one documented above.
Host address of the pydev server.
Provide a string value representing the hostname or IP of the pydev server to use for debugging. The pydev server listens for debug connections on this address, facilitating remote debugging in Glance.
- Possible values:

None
- digest_algorithm¶
- Type:
string
- Default:
sha256
Digest algorithm to use for digital signature.
Provide a string value representing the digest algorithm to use for generating digital signatures. By default,
sha256
is used.To get a list of the available algorithms supported by the version of OpenSSL on your platform, run the command:
openssl list-message-digest-algorithms
. Examples are ‘sha1’, ‘sha256’, and ‘sha512’.NOTE:
digest_algorithm
is not related to Glance’s image signing and verification. It is only used to sign the universally unique identifier (UUID) as a part of the certificate file and key file validation.- Possible values:
An OpenSSL message digest algorithm identifier
- Relation options:
None
- node_staging_uri¶
- Type:
string
- Default:
file:///tmp/staging/
The URL provides location where the temporary data will be stored
This option is for Glance internal use only. Glance will save the image data uploaded by the user to ‘staging’ endpoint during the image import process.
This option does not change the ‘staging’ API endpoint by any means.
NOTE: It is discouraged to use same path as [task]/work_dir
NOTE: ‘file://<absolute-directory-path>’ is the only option api_image_import flow will support for now.
NOTE: The staging path must be on shared filesystem available to all Glance API nodes.
- Possible values:
String starting with ‘file://’ followed by absolute FS path
- Related options:
[task]/work_dir

- Type:
list
- Default:
['glance-direct', 'web-download', 'copy-image']
List of enabled Image Import Methods
‘glance-direct’, ‘copy-image’ and ‘web-download’ are enabled by default. ‘glance-download’ is available, but requires federated deployments.
- Related options:
[DEFAULT]/node_staging_uri
- worker_self_reference_url¶
- Type:
string
- Default:
<None>
The URL to this worker.
If this is set, other glance workers will know how to contact this one directly if needed. For image import, a single worker stages the image and other workers need to be able to proxy the import request to the right one.
If unset, this will be considered to be public_endpoint, which normally would be set to the same value on all workers, effectively disabling the proxying behavior.
- Possible values:
A URL by which this worker is reachable from other workers
- Related options:
public_endpoint
- location_strategy¶
- Type:
string
- Default:
location_order
- Valid Values:
location_order, store_type
Strategy to determine the preference order of image locations.
This configuration option indicates the strategy to determine the order in which an image’s locations must be accessed to serve the image’s data. Glance then retrieves the image data from the first responsive active location it finds in this list.
This option takes one of two possible values
location_order
andstore_type
. The default value islocation_order
, which suggests that image data be served by using locations in the order they are stored in Glance. Thestore_type
value sets the image location preference based on the order in which the storage backends are listed as a comma separated list for the configuration optionstore_type_preference
.- Possible values:
location_order
store_type
- Related options:
store_type_preference
- property_protection_file¶
- Type:
string
- Default:
<None>
The location of the property protection file.
Provide a valid path to the property protection file which contains the rules for property protections and the roles/policies associated with them.
A property protection file, when set, restricts the Glance image properties to be created, read, updated and/or deleted by a specific set of users that are identified by either roles or policies. If this configuration option is not set, by default, property protections won’t be enforced. If a value is specified and the file is not found, the glance-api service will fail to start. More information on property protections can be found at: https://docs.openstack.org/glance/latest/admin/property-protections.html
- Possible values:
Empty string
Valid path to the property protection configuration file
- Related options:

- property_protection_rule_format¶
- Type:
string
- Default:
roles
- Valid Values:
roles, policies
Rule format for property protection.
Provide the desired way to set property protection on Glance image properties. The two permissible values are
roles
andpolicies
. The default value isroles
.If the value is
roles
, the property protection file must contain a comma separated list of user roles indicating permissions for each of the CRUD operations on each property being protected. If set topolicies
, a policy defined in policy.yaml is used to express property protections for each of the CRUD operations. Examples of how property protections are enforced based onroles
orpolicies
can be found at: https://docs.openstack.org/glance/latest/admin/property-protections.html#examples- Possible values:
roles
policies

- bind_host¶
- Type:
host address
- Default:
0.0.0.0
IP address to bind the glance servers to.
Provide an IP address to bind the glance server to. The default value is
0.0.0.0
.Edit this option to enable the server to listen on one particular IP address on the network card. This facilitates selection of a particular network interface for the server.
- Possible values:
A valid IPv4 address
A valid IPv6 address
- Related options:
None
- bind_port¶
- Type:
port number
- Default:
<None>
- Minimum Value:
0
- Maximum Value:
65535
Port number on which the server will listen.
Provide a valid port number to bind the server’s socket to. This port is then set to identify processes and forward network messages that arrive at the server. The default bind_port value for the API server is 9292 and for the registry server is 9191.
- Possible values:
A valid port number (0 to 65535)
- Related options:
None
- workers¶
- Type:
integer
- Default:
<None>
- Minimum Value:
0
Number of Glance worker processes to start.
Provide a non-negative integer value to set the number of child process workers to service requests. By default, the number of CPUs available is set as the value for
workers
limited to 8. For example if the processor count is 6, 6 workers will be used, if the processor count is 24 only 8 workers will be used. The limit will only apply to the default value, if 24 workers is configured, 24 is used.Each worker process is made to listen on the port set in the configuration file and contains a greenthread pool of size 1000.
NOTE: Setting the number of workers to zero, triggers the creation of a single API process with a greenthread pool of size 1000.
- Possible values:
0
Positive integer value (typically equal to the number of CPUs)
- Related options:
None
- max_header_line¶
- Type:
integer
- Default:
16384
- Minimum Value:
0
Maximum line size of message headers.
Provide an integer value representing a length to limit the size of message headers. The default value is 16384.
NOTE:
max_header_line
may need to be increased when using large tokens (typically those generated by the Keystone v3 API with big service catalogs). However, it is to be kept in mind that larger values formax_header_line
would flood the logs.Setting
max_header_line
to 0 sets no limit for the line size of message headers.- Possible values:
0
Positive integer
- Related options:
None
- http_keepalive¶
- Type:
boolean
- Default:
True
Set keep alive option for HTTP over TCP.
Provide a boolean value to determine sending of keep alive packets. If set to
False
, the server returns the header “Connection: close”. If set toTrue
, the server returns a “Connection: Keep-Alive” in its responses. This enables retention of the same TCP connection for HTTP conversations instead of opening a new one with each new request.This option must be set to
False
if the client socket connection needs to be closed explicitly after the response is received and read successfully by the client.- Possible values:
True
False
- Related options:
None
- client_socket_timeout¶
- Type:
integer
- Default:
900
- Minimum Value:
0
Timeout for client connections’ socket operations.
Provide a valid integer value representing time in seconds to set the period of wait before an incoming connection can be closed. The default value is 900 seconds.
The value zero implies wait forever.

Zero
Positive integer
- Related options:
None
- backlog¶
- Type:
integer
- Default:
4096
- Minimum Value:
1
Set the number of incoming connection requests.
Provide a positive integer value to limit the number of requests in the backlog queue. The default queue size is 4096.
An incoming connection to a TCP listener socket is queued before a connection can be established with the server. Setting the backlog for a TCP socket ensures a limited queue size for incoming traffic.
- Possible values:
Positive integer
- Related options:
None
- tcp_keepidle¶
- Type:
integer
- Default:
600
- Minimum Value:
1
Set the wait time before a connection recheck.
Provide a positive integer value representing time in seconds which is set as the idle wait time before a TCP keep alive packet can be sent to the host. The default value is 600 seconds.
Setting
tcp_keepidle
helps verify at regular intervals that a connection is intact and prevents frequent TCP connection reestablishment.- Possible values:
Positive integer value representing time in seconds
- Related options:
None
- enabled_backends¶
- Type:
dict
- Default:
<None>
Key:Value pair of store identifier and store type. In case of multiple backends should be separated using comma.
- pipe_handle¶
- Type:
string
- Default:
<None>
This argument is used internally on Windows. Glance passes a pipe handle to child processes, which is then used for inter-process communication.

cache.db
The relative path to sqlite file database that will be used for image cache management.
This is a relative path to the sqlite file database that tracks the age and usage statistics of image cache. The path is relative to image cache base directory, specified by the configuration option
image_cache_dir
.This is a lightweight database with just one table.
- Possible values:
A valid relative path to sqlite file database

- image_cache_driver¶
- Type:
string
- Default:
sqlite
- Valid Values:
sqlite, xattr
The driver to use for image cache management.
This configuration option provides the flexibility to choose between the different image-cache drivers available. An image-cache driver is responsible for providing the essential functions of image-cache like write images to/read images from cache, track age and usage of cached images, provide a list of cached images, fetch size of the cache, queue images for caching and clean up the cache, etc.
The essential functions of a driver are defined in the base class
glance.image_cache.drivers.base.Driver
. All image-cache drivers (existing and prospective) must implement this interface. Currently available drivers aresqlite
andxattr
. These drivers primarily differ in the way they store the information about cached images:The
sqlite
driver uses a sqlite database (which sits on every glance node locally) to track the usage of cached images.The
xattr
driver uses the extended attributes of files to store this information. It also requires a filesystem that setsatime
on the files when accessed.
- Possible values:
sqlite
xattr

None
- image_cache_max_size¶
- Type:
integer
- Default:
10737418240
- Minimum Value:
0
The upper limit on cache size, in bytes, after which the cache-pruner cleans up the image cache.
NOTE: This is just a threshold for cache-pruner to act upon. It is NOT a hard limit beyond which the image cache would never grow. In fact, depending on how often the cache-pruner runs and how quickly the cache fills, the image cache can far exceed the size specified here very easily. Hence, care must be taken to appropriately schedule the cache-pruner and in setting this limit.
Glance caches an image when it is downloaded. Consequently, the size of the image cache grows over time as the number of downloads increases. To keep the cache size from becoming unmanageable, it is recommended to run the cache-pruner as a periodic task. When the cache pruner is kicked off, it compares the current size of image cache and triggers a cleanup if the image cache grew beyond the size specified here. After the cleanup, the size of cache is less than or equal to size specified here.
- Possible values:
Any non-negative integer
- Related options:
None
- image_cache_stall_time¶
- Type:
integer
- Default:
86400
- Minimum Value:
0
The amount of time, in seconds, an incomplete image remains in the cache.
Incomplete images are images for which download is in progress. Please see the description of configuration option
image_cache_dir
for more detail. Sometimes, due to various reasons, it is possible the download may hang and the incompletely downloaded image remains in theincomplete
directory. This configuration option sets a time limit on how long the incomplete images should remain in theincomplete
directory before they are cleaned up. Once an incomplete image spends more time than is specified here, it’ll be removed by cache-cleaner on its next run.It is recommended to run cache-cleaner as a periodic task on the Glance API nodes to keep the incomplete images from occupying disk space.
- Possible values:
Any non-negative integer
- Related options:
None
- image_cache_dir¶
- Type:
string
- Default:
<None>
Base directory for image cache.
This is the location where image data is cached and served out of. All cached images are stored directly under this directory. This directory also contains three subdirectories, namely,
incomplete
,invalid
andqueue
.The
incomplete
subdirectory is the staging area for downloading images. An image is first downloaded to this directory. When the image download is successful it is moved to the base directory. However, if the download fails, the partially downloaded image file is moved to theinvalid
subdirectory.The
queue``subdirectory is used for queuing images for download. This is used primarily by the cache-prefetcher, which can be scheduled as a periodic task like cache-pruner and cache-cleaner, to cache images ahead of their usage. Upon receiving the request to cache an image, Glance touches a file in the ``queue
directory with the image id as the file name. The cache-prefetcher, when running, polls for the files inqueue
directory and starts downloading them in the order they were created. When the download is successful, the zero-sized file is deleted from thequeue
directory. If the download fails, the zero-sized file remains and it’ll be retried the next time cache-prefetcher runs.- Possible values:
A valid path

This is the value that the notification driver will use to identify messages for events originating from the Glance service. Typically, this is the hostname of the instance that generated the message.
- Possible values:
Any reasonable instance identifier, for example: image.host1
- Related options:
None
- disabled_notifications¶
- Type:
list
- Default:

Specify a list of notifications that should not be emitted. A notification can be given either as a notification type to disable a single event notification, or as a notification group prefix to disable all event notifications within a group.
- Possible values:
A comma-separated list of individual notification types or notification groups to be disabled. Currently supported groups:
image
image.member

- Related options:
None
- scrub_time¶
- Type:
integer
- Default:
0
- Minimum Value:
0
The amount of time, in seconds, to delay image scrubbing.
When delayed delete is turned on, an image is put into
pending_delete
state upon deletion until the scrubber deletes its image data. Typically, soon after the image is put intopending_delete
state, it is available for scrubbing. However, scrubbing can be delayed until a later point using this configuration option. This option denotes the time period an image spends inpending_delete
state before it is available for scrubbing.It is important to realize that this has storage implications. The larger the
scrub_time
, the longer the time to reclaim backend storage from deleted images.- Possible values:
Any non-negative integer
- Related options:
delayed_delete
- scrub_pool_size¶
- Type:
integer
- Default:
1
- Minimum Value:
1
The size of thread pool to be used for scrubbing images.
When there are a large number of images to scrub, it is beneficial to scrub images in parallel so that the scrub queue stays in control and the backend storage is reclaimed in a timely fashion. This configuration option denotes the maximum number of images to be scrubbed in parallel. The default value is one, which signifies serial scrubbing. Any value above one indicates parallel scrubbing.
- Possible values:
Any non-zero positive integer
- Related options:
delayed_delete
- delayed_delete¶
- Type:
boolean
- Default:
False
Turn on/off delayed delete.
Typically when an image is deleted, the
glance-api
service puts the image intodeleted
state and deletes its data at the same time. Delayed delete is a feature in Glance that delays the actual deletion of image data until a later point in time (as determined by the configuration optionscrub_time
). When delayed delete is turned on, theglance-api
service puts the image intopending_delete
state upon deletion and leaves the image data in the storage backend for the image scrubber to delete at a later time. The image scrubber will move the image intodeleted
state upon successful deletion of image data.NOTE: When delayed delete is turned on, image scrubber MUST be running as a periodic task to prevent the backend storage from filling up with undesired usage.

When True, if sending a user token to a REST API, also send a service token.
Nova often reuses the user token provided to the nova-api to talk to other REST APIs, such as Cinder, Glance and Neutron. It is possible that while the user token was valid when the request was made to Nova, the token may expire before it reaches the other service. To avoid any failures, and to make it clear it is Nova calling the service on the user’s behalf, we include a service token along with the user token. Should the user’s token have expired, a valid service token ensures the REST API request will still be accepted by the keystone middleware.

1
Size, in megabytes, to chunk RADOS images into.
Provide an integer value representing the size in megabytes to chunk Glance images into. The default chunk size is 8 megabytes. For optimal performance, the value should be a power of two.
When Ceph’s RBD object storage system is used as the storage backend for storing Glance images, the images are chunked into objects of the size set using this option. These chunked objects are then stored across the distributed block data store to use for Glance.
- Possible Values:
Any positive integer value
- Related options:
None
- rbd_store_pool¶
- Type:
string
- Default:

This configuration option specifies the path to the Ceph configuration file to be used. If the value for this option is not set by the user or is set to the empty string, librados will read the standard ceph.conf file by searching the default Ceph configuration file locations in sequential order. See the Ceph documentation for details.
NOTE: If using Cephx authentication, this file should include a reference to the right keyring in a client.<USER> section
NOTE 2: If you leave this option empty (the default), the actual Ceph configuration file used may change depending on what version of librados is being used. If it is important for you to know exactly which configuration file is in effect, you may specify that file here using this option.

- rados_connect_timeout¶
- Type:
integer
- Default:
0
Timeout value for connecting to Ceph cluster.
This configuration option takes in the timeout value in seconds used when connecting to the Ceph cluster i.e. it sets the time to wait for glance-api before closing the connection. This prevents glance-api hangups during the connection to RBD. If the value for this option is set to less than or equal to 0, no timeout is set and the default librados value is used.
- Possible Values:
Any integer value
- Related options:
None
Warning
This option is deprecated for removal since Zed. Its value may be silently ignored in the future.
- Reason:
This option has not had any effect in years. Users willing to set a timeout for connecting to the Ceph cluster should use ‘client_mount_timeout’ in Ceph’s configuration file.

Name of single container to store images/name prefix for multiple containers
When a single container is being used to store images, this configuration option indicates the container within the Glance account to be used for storing all images. When multiple containers are used to store images, this will be the name prefix for all containers. Usage of single/multiple containers can be controlled using the configuration option
swift_store_multiple_containers_seed
.When using multiple containers, the containers will be named after the value set for this configuration option with the first N chars of the image UUID as the suffix delimited by an underscore (where N is specified by
swift_store_multiple_containers_seed
).Example: if the seed is set to 3 and swift_store_container =
glance
, then an image with UUIDfdae39a1-bac5-4238-aba4-69bcc726e848
would be placed in the containerglance_fda
. All dashes in the UUID are included when creating the container name but do not count toward the character limit, so when N=10 the container name would beglance_fdae39a1-ba.
- Possible values:
If using single container, this configuration option can be any string that is a valid swift container name in Glance’s Swift account
If using multiple containers, this configuration option can be any string as long as it satisfies the container naming rules enforced by Swift. The value of

- swift_store_large_object_size¶
- Type:
integer
- Default:
5120
- Minimum Value:
1
The size threshold, in MB, after which Glance will start segmenting image data.
Swift has an upper limit on the size of a single uploaded object. By default, this is 5GB. To upload objects bigger than this limit, objects are segmented into multiple smaller objects that are tied together with a manifest file. For more detail, refer to https://docs.openstack.org/swift/latest/overview_large_objects.html
This configuration option specifies the size threshold over which the Swift driver will start segmenting image data into multiple smaller files. Currently, the Swift driver only supports creating Dynamic Large Objects.
NOTE: This should be set by taking into account the large object limit enforced by the Swift cluster in consideration.

Seed indicating the number of containers to use for storing images.
When using a single-tenant store, images can be stored in one or more than one containers. When set to 0, all images will be stored in one single container. When set to an integer value between 1 and 32, multiple containers will be used to store images. This configuration option will determine how many containers are created. The total number of containers that will be used is equal to 16^N, so if this config option is set to 2, then 16^2=256 containers will be used to store images.
Please refer to
swift_store_container
for more detail on the naming convention. More detail about using multiple containers can be found at https://specs.openstack.org/openstack/glance-specs/specs/kilo/swift-store-multiple-containers.htmlNOTE: This is used only when swift_store_multi_tenant is disabled.

- Type:
integer
- Default:
60
- Minimum Value:
0
Time in seconds defining the size of the window in which a new token may be requested before the current token is due to expire.
Typically, the Swift storage driver fetches a new token upon the expiration of the current token to ensure continued access to Swift. However, some Swift transactions (like uploading image segments) may not recover well if the token expires on the fly.
Hence, by fetching a new token before the current token expiration, we make sure that the token does not expire or is close to expiry before a transaction is attempted. By default, the Swift storage driver requests for a new token 60 seconds or less before the current token expiration.
- Possible values:
Zero
Positive integer value
- Related Options:
None
- swift_store_use_trusts¶
- Type:
boolean
- Default:
True
Use trusts for multi-tenant Swift store.
This option instructs the Swift store to create a trust for each add/get request when the multi-tenant store is in use. Using trusts allows the Swift store to avoid problems that can be caused by an authentication token expiring during the upload or download of data.
By default,
swift_store_use_trusts
is set toTrue``(use of trusts is enabled). If set to ``False
, a user token is used for the Swift connection instead, eliminating the overhead of trust creation.NOTE: This option is considered only when

- Type:
integer
- Default:
60
- Minimum Value:
0
Time in seconds defining the size of the window in which a new token may be requested before the current token is due to expire.
Typically, the Swift storage driver fetches a new token upon the expiration of the current token to ensure continued access to Swift. However, some Swift transactions (like uploading image segments) may not recover well if the token expires on the fly.
Hence, by fetching a new token before the current token expiration, we make sure that the token does not expire or is close to expiry before a transaction is attempted. By default, the Swift storage driver requests for a new token 60 seconds or less before the current token expiration.

This configuration option specifies the datastores where the image can be stored in the VMWare store backend. This option may be specified multiple times for specifying multiple datastores. The datastore name should be specified after its datacenter path, separated by “:”. An optional weight may be given after the datastore name, separated again by “:” to specify the priority. Thus, the required format becomes <datacenter_path>:<datastore_name>:<optional_weight>.
When adding an image, the datastore with highest weight will be selected, unless there is not enough free space available in cases where the image size is already known. If no weight is given, it is assumed to be zero and the directory will be considered for selection last. If multiple datastores have the same weight, then the one with the most free space available is selected.
