Problem on running "nova boot myserver"

[Stephen Liu]

Hi,

$ nova boot myserver --flavor 2 --key_name mykey \
> --image $(glance index | sed -n '/f16-jeos/{s/ .*//p;q}')
usage: nova boot [--flavor <flavor>] [--image <image>] [--meta <key=value>]
                 [--file <dst-path=src-path>] [--key_name <key_name>]
                 [--user_data <user-data>]
                 [--availability_zone <availability-zone>]
                 [--security_groups <security_groups>]
                 [--block_device_mapping <dev_name=mapping>]
                 [--hint <key=value>]
                 [--nic <net-id=net-uuid,v4-fixed-ip=ip-addr>]
                 [--config-drive <value>] [--poll]
                 <name>
error: argument --image: expected one argument
Try `nova help boot' for more information.

Still the same.


Started "Launch an Instance" again.

$ sudo modprobe nbd
[sudo] password for satimis: 
No complaint.


$ nova keypair-add mykey > oskey.priv
ERROR: You must provide a username via either --os_username or env[OS_USERNAME]

It complained.

Any suggestion?  TIA
