Upload Fabric Images
First, you must fetch the images from Gigamon Customer Portal using FTP, SCP, or other desired methods and copy it to your cloud controller. After fetching the images, you must source the credentials file and then upload the qcow2 images to Glance.
For example, you can source the credentials file with admin credentials using the following command:
$ source admin_openrc.sh
To upload the qcow2 images to Glance, use the following commands:
GigaVUE-FM - glance image-create --disk-format qcow2 --visibility public --container-format bare --progress --name fm-6.9-uefiSec-boot --file gfm-6.9.qcow2
GigaVUE-FM with UEFI Boot - glance image-create --disk-format qcow2 --visibility public --container-format bare --property hw_firmware_type=uefi --progress --name fm-6.9-uefiSec-boot --file gfm-6.9.qcow2
GigaVUE-FM with UEFI secure Boot - glance image-create --disk-format qcow2 --visibility public --container-format bare --property hw_firmware_type=uefi --property os_secure_boot=required --progress --name fm-6.9-uefiSec-boot --file gfm-6.9.qcow2
Note: UEFI secure boot is supported on RHSOP 17.01 version and above. UEFI secure boot is not supported on Wallaby.
Refer to the below table for the OpenStack flavors and the versions that support UEFI and UEFI secure boot:

UCT-V OVS Controller - glance image-create --disk-format qcow2 --visibility public --container-format bare --progress --name gigamon-gigavue-uctv-ovs-cntlr-6.9 --file gigamon-gigavue-uctv-ovs-cntlr-6.9.qcow2
UCT-V Controller - glance image-create --disk-format qcow2 --visibility public --container-format bare --progress --name gigamon-gigavue-uctv-cntlr-6.9 --file gigamon-gigavue-uctv-cntlr-6.9.qcow2
GigaVUE V Series Node - glance image-create --disk-format qcow2 --visibility public --container-format bare --progress --name gigamon-gigavue-vseries-node-6.9 --file gigamon-gigavue-vseries-node-6.9.qcow2
While uploading images to OpenStack, the names of the image files should be of the following format:
- gigamon-gigavue-vseries-node-6.9
- gigamon-gigavue-vseries-proxy-6.9
- gigamon-gigavue-uctv-cntlr-6.9
- gigamon-gigavue-uctv-ovs-cntlr-6.9
Note: Always use '-' after the build number when providing designation details. For example, "gigamon-gigavue-uctv-ovs-cntlr-buildNumber-". Failure to follow this pattern will result in controller's deployment failure.
