Nova boot from volume

Asked by kallel-ameni

Hello,
I want to launch machine that boot from volume using curl.
I read this document: https://blueprints.launchpad.net/nova/+spec/boot-from-volume. and i tried this command:

 curl -u admin:passwd -H X-Auth-Token:8942df4e5f6b414b8b156a45aa3f76ff -H "Content-Type: application/json" -X POST -d '{"server": {"name":"yoshi", "imageRef":"d54cb1e0-6846-42ef-95c7-0892816e11a5", "flavorRef": "1", "volumes": {"id":"2", "mountpoint":"/dev/vda"}}}' http://192.168.1.5:8774/v2/1db3a28efe3e4c45b541ceacbde0d05f/servers

the machine is created with success but no volume is attached to it .
Can you help me to resolve this issue.

Try using the nova cli first, and use the --debug option.
It should let you know exactly what you need to send.

Can you help with this problem?
