glance-manage [options]
glance-manage is a utility for managing and configuring a Glance installation. One important use of glance-manage is to setup the database. To do this run:
glance-manage db_sync
Note: glance-manage commands can be run either like this:
glance-manage db sync
or with the db commands concatenated, like this:
glance-manage db_sync
- db
- This is the prefix for the commands below when used with a space rather than a _. For example “db version”.
- db_version
- This will print the current migration level of a glance database.
- db_upgrade <VERSION>
- This will take an existing database and upgrade it to the specified VERSION.
- db_downgrade <VERSION>
- This will take an existing database and downgrade it to the specified VERSION.
- db_version_control
- Place the database under migration control.
- db_sync <VERSION> <CURRENT_VERSION>
- Place a database under migration control and upgrade, creating it first if necessary.
- db_export_metadefs
- Export the metadata definitions into json format. By default the definitions are exported to /etc/glance/metadefs directory.
- db_load_metadefs
- Load the metadata definitions into glance database. By default the definitions are imported from /etc/glance/metadefs directory.
- db_unload_metadefs
- Unload the metadata definitions. Clears the contents of all the glance db tables including metadef_namespace_resource_types, metadef_tags, metadef_objects, metadef_resource_types, metadef_namespaces and metadef_properties.
General Options
- -h, –help
- Show the help message and exit
- –version
- Print the version number and exit
- -v, –verbose
- Print more verbose output
- –noverbose
- Disable verbose output
- -d, –debug
- Print debugging output (set logging level to DEBUG instead of default WARNING level)
- –nodebug
- Disable debugging output
- –use-syslog
- Use syslog for logging
- –nouse-syslog
- Disable the use of syslog for logging
- –syslog-log-facility SYSLOG_LOG_FACILITY
- syslog facility to receive log lines
- –config-dir DIR
- Path to a config directory to pull *.conf files from. This file set is sorted, to provide a predictable parse order if individual options are over-ridden. The set is parsed after the file(s) specified via previous –config-file, arguments hence over-ridden options in the directory take precedence. This means that configuration from files in a specified config-dir will always take precedence over configuration from files specified by –config-file, regardless to argument order.
- –config-file PATH
- Path to a config file to use. Multiple config files can be specified by using this flag multiple times, for example, –config-file <file1> –config-file <file2>. Values in latter files take precedence.
- –log-config-append PATH –log-config PATH
- The name of logging configuration file. It does not disable existing loggers, but just appends specified logging configuration to any other existing logging options. Please see the Python logging module documentation for details on logging configuration files. The log-config name for this option is depcrecated.
- –log-format FORMAT
- A logging.Formatter log message format string which may use any of the available logging.LogRecord attributes. Default: None
- –log-date-format DATE_FORMAT
- Format string for %(asctime)s in log records. Default: None
- –log-file PATH, –logfile PATH
- (Optional) Name of log file to output to. If not set, logging will go to stdout.
- –log-dir LOG_DIR, –logdir LOG_DIR
- (Optional) The directory to keep log files in (will be prepended to –log-file)
- –sql_connection=CONN_STRING
- A proper SQLAlchemy connection string as described here
The following paths are searched for a glance-manage.conf file in the following order:
All options set in glance-manage.conf override those set in glance-registry.conf and glance-api.conf.
