Create VM snapshot through NOVA API
I didn't find this opportunity, so far, so I ask. Is it planned to make instance snapshoting available through NOVA API?
At the moment we use OpenStack as a testing platform in a software development company, sometimes it is convenient to make a snapshot of running instance, prior to testing. We do it through 'virsh snapshot-create', but it isn't convenient, because one need to perform the following actions:
1) euca-describe-instances | grep VM_IP_ADDRESS -> to get EC2 instance ID 2) sudo virsh list -> to get libvirt instance ID 3) sudo virsh snapshot-create ...
