Doug Hellmann 1c7f556d4f rearrange existing documentation to follow the new layout standard
This change moves existing files, updates a few of the cross-references
and paths, and fixes some formatting. It is not meant to be the final
word on how the main page looks or how the other files are organized,
but it gets everything roughly into shape. If the glance team wants to
make changes, please do those as follow-up patches

This change depends on the spec and on a feature of pbr that allows us
to move where the auto-generated class reference documentation ends up
in the tree.

Stuart McLaren fc0b47beb6 Add 'vhdx' disk format.
This patch adds the Hyper-V 'vhdx' disk format to the Glance
configuration. This allows users to upload 'vhdx' images by default.

'vhdx' disks can have much larger storage capacity than the older 'vhd'
format [1].  (Plus, anything with 'x' in the name is awesome.)

DocImpact: Docs will need to be updated to indicate that the 'vhdx'
disk_format is now one of the default disk formats supported by Glance.

UpgradeImpact: Adds 'vhdx' to the default list of disk_formats.  Operators
will no longer need to configure specifically to use 'vhdx' disks.

Dave McNally f666e5f5e6 Add the Docker container format
A Docker image is a tar archive typically containing a container
filesystem. In order to use the nova-docker compute driver nova and boot
docker instances glance support of the docker container format is
required.

This patch adds the Docker container format to the Glance configuration.

DocImpact: Docs will need to be updated to indicate that the docker
container_format is now one of the default container formats supported
by Glance.

UpgradeImpact: Adds 'docker' to the default list of container_formats.
Operators will no longer need to configure specifically to use docker
containers.

Arnaud Legendre 965e2c3594 Add the OVA container format
An OVA package is a tar archive usually containing an OVF directory
inside it. Nova needs to be able to differentiate OVF and OVA based on
the container format in order to extract the relevant information from
it.
This patch adds the OVA container format to the Glance configuration.

Lorin Hochstein fea599efcc Updated RST docs on containers, fewer references to OVF format.
Updated the RST documentation that discusses container formats, since they
aren't really used right now.

Changed some examples from ovf to bare, since in most cases, users just upload
a bare image file.

jaypipes@gmail.com 4a8522d794 Final review fixes. Makes disk_format and container_format optional. Makes glance-upload --type put the type in properties 2011-03-05 12:04:43 -05:00
jaypipes@gmail.com 79ba479ada Adds lots of unit tests for verifying exceptions are raised
properly with invalid or mismatched disk and container formats.

Adds documentation on disk and container formats. Updates
existing documentation to remove references to the now-gone
type column and replaces these references with disk_format
and container_format.

Reworked the validates_image() method in the registry.db.api
to be like what Rick was describing in reviews.
