Symptoms
In VMware Integrated OpenStack 7.0, 7.0.1, or 7.2:
The environment is upgraded from VIO 5.x or earlier.The horizon UI of OpenStack experiences extreme sluggishness.In the glance database we have an extreme count of entries in the image_location table with temp:// entries.There are errors in the glance-vmw-replicator log for attempting to copy an image with an external URL instead of vi:// or vsphere:// locations.
Cause
VMware Integrated OpenStack's glance-vmw-replicator service attempts to copy the image across multiple vCenters. The service fails to do this when the image location is URL based instead of calling the vCenter location.
