Allow the user to specify other, non-raw files and upload them, performing a conversion with qemu-img convert and a temporary block device as a shim (since qemu-img can't use FIFOs). Also ensures that the target volume exists before proceeding. Addresses #68
PVC - The Parallel Virtual Cluster suite
PVC is a suite of Python 3 tools to manage virtualized clusters. It provides a fully-functional private cloud based on four key principles:
- Be Free Software Forever (or Bust)
- Be Opinionated and Efficient and Pick The Best Software
- Be Scalable and Redundant but Not Hyperscale
- Be Simple To Use, Configure, and Maintain
It is designed to be an administrator-friendly but extremely powerful and rich modern private cloud system, but without the feature bloat and complexity of tools like OpenStack. With PVC, an administrator can provision, manage, and update a cluster of dozens or more hypervisors running thousands of VMs using a simple CLI tool, HTTP API, or [eventually] web interface. PVC is based entirely on Debian GNU/Linux and Free-and-Open-Source tools, providing the glue to bootstrap, provision and manage the cluster, then getting out of the administrators' way.
Your cloud, the best way; just add physical servers.
