Notifications

Notifications

Notifications can be generated for several events in the image lifecycle. These can be used for auditing, troubleshooting, etc.

Notification Drivers

  • log

    This driver uses the standard Python logging infrastructure with the notifications ending up in file specified by the log_file configuration directive.

  • messaging

    This strategy sends notifications to a message queue configured using oslo.messaging configuration options.

  • noop

    This strategy produces no notifications. It is the default strategy.

Notification Types

  • image.upload

    Emitted when Glance has completed the upload of image data to its store.

  • image.activate

    Emitted when an image goes to active status. This occurs when Glance knows where the image data is located.

  • image.send

    Emitted upon completion of an image being sent to a consumer.

  • image.update

    Emitted when an image record is updated in Glance.

  • image.delete

    Emitted when an image deleted from Glance.

  • task.run

    Emitted when a task is picked up by the executor to be run.

  • task.processing

    Emitted when a task is sent over to the executor to begin processing.

  • task.success

    Emitted when a task is successfully completed.

  • task.failure

    Emitted when a task fails.
