Compute relies on an external image service to store virtual machine images and maintain a catalog of available images. By default, Compute is configured to use the OpenStack Image Service (Glance), which is currently the only supported image service.
If your installation requires euca2ools to register new
images, you must run the nova-objectstore
service. This service provides an Amazon S3 front-end for Glance,
which is required by euca2ools.
To customize the Compute Service, use the configuration option settings documented in Table 2.27, “Description of configuration options for glance” and Table 2.47, “Description of configuration options for s3”.
You can modify many options in the OpenStack Image Service. The following tables provide a comprehensive list.
| Configuration option = Default value | Description |

| delay_auth_decision = False | (BoolOpt) Do not handle authorization requests within the middleware, but delegate the authorization decision to downstream WSGI components |
| enforce_token_bind = permissive | (StrOpt) Used to control the use and type of token binding. Can be set to: "disabled" to not check token binding. "permissive" (default) to validate binding information if the bind type is of a form known to the server and ignore it if not.

Finally the name of a binding method that must be present in tokens. |
| http_connect_timeout = None | (BoolOpt) Request timeout value for communicating with Identity API server. |
