I have run a quick test with the latest openstack-octavia-diskimage-create
package from RDO Trunk, and it works like a charm.

Let's add it as an item for the next meeting, so we define a plan. My
proposal would be a daily build using a periodic job, storing images in a
new path under images.rdoproject.org.
Hi all,
We discussed the topic at today's RDO meeting (see [1] for minutes). Consensus was
reached on using a periodic job to build the images, then store them in
images.rdoproject.org.
This should be a first iteration of the concept, so we can provide a ready-made image for
testing. If/when this image is used in gate jobs, we will have to revisit the concept and
make sure we add some tests before publishing an image.
Now it is time to implement it. All help is welcome :).
Regards,
Javier
