is it possible to use Cloud-image with ceph in proxmox?

Well, seems they provide boot-able qcow2 files for kvm (ending with'-disk1')

I simply downloaded such file:

# wget http://cloud-images.ubuntu.com/rele.../ubuntu-13.04-server-cloudimg-amd64-disk1.img

create a new VM, and simply overwrite the disk (virtio0) image before starting:

# mv raring-desktop-cloudimg-i386.img /var/lib/vz/images/<vmid>/vm-<vmid>-disk-1.raw

Seems that boots without problems (but I have not done furter checks).

For ceph, you need to convert/import that qcow2 image first.

Thank you Dietmer,

I prefer to convert the format img to qcow2, to use it for creating vms as instances of openstarck.
Bye.

That .img is already in qcow2 format.
Click to expand...

But when i try to upload the image to ceph storage bye the GUI of proxmox. it's not possible!!! the format it's unrecognized.

Perhaps i must change some thing from the format in /etc/pve/storage.cfg

Thank's
 
I try to upload from every format, raw, img and qcow2, but it 's not possible .

Error 500: cant upload to storage type 'rbd'
