+# Openstack Servers
+
+To read more about Openstack Servers using the [upstream docs](https://docs.openstack.org/python-openstackclient/latest/cli/command-objects/server.html).
+
+#### List and view servers
+
+``` shell
+openstack server list
+    [--quote {all,minimal,none,nonnumeric}]
+    [--reservation-id <reservation-id>]
+    [--ip <ip-address-regex>]
+    [--ip6 <ip-address-regex>]

+    [--changes-since <changes-since>]
+```
+
+#### Create a new server
+
+``` shell
+openstack server create
+    (--image <image> | --volume <volume>)
+    --flavor <flavor>
+    [--security-group <security-group>]
+    [--key-name <key-name>]

+```
+
+#### Delete a server
+
+``` shell
+openstack server delete [--wait] <server> [<server> ...]
+```
+
+# Launch a server from a snapshot
+
+#### Create a snapshot of the instance
+
+!!! note
+
+    If necessary, list the instances to view the instance name with the list server command above.
+
+1. Shut down the source VM before you take the snapshot to ensure that all data is flushed to disk. Use the openstack server stop command to shut down the instance:
+
+    ``` shell
+    openstack server stop myInstance
+    ```
+
+2. Use the openstack server list command to confirm that the instance shows a SHUTOFF status.
+
+3. Use the openstack server image create command to take a snapshot:
+
+    ``` shell
+    openstack server image create myInstance --name myInstanceSnapshot
+    ```
+    The above command creates the image myInstance by taking a snapshot of a running server.
+
+4. Use the openstack image list command to check the status until the status is active:
+
+    ``` shell
+    openstack image list
+    ```
+
+#### Download the snapshot
+
+!!! note
+
+    Get the image id from the image list command (seen above).
+
+Download the snapshot by using the image ID:
+
+``` shell
+openstack image save --file snapshot.raw {Image ID}
+```
+
+Make the image available to the new environment, either through HTTP or direct upload to a machine (scp).
+
+#### Import the snapshot to the new env
+
+In the new project or cloud environment, import the snapshot:
+
+``` shell
+openstack image create NEW_IMAGE_NAME \
+  --container-format bare --disk-format qcow2 --file IMAGE_URL
+```
+
+#### Boot a new sever from the snapshot
+
+In the new project or cloud environment, use the snapshot to create the new instance:
+
+``` shell
+openstack server create --flavor m1.tiny --image myInstanceSnapshot myNewInstance
+```
+
+
+# Launch a server from a volume
+
+#### Boot instance from volume
+
+You can create a bootable volume from an existing image, volume, or snapshot. This procedure shows you how to create a volume from an image and use the volume to boot an instance.
+
+1. List available images, noting the ID of the image that you wish to use.
+    ``` shell
+    openstack image list
+    ```
+2. Create a bootable volume from the chosen image.
+    ``` shell
+    openstack volume create \
+    --image {Image ID} --size 10 \
+    test-volume
+    ```
+3. Create a server, specifying the volume as the boot device.
+    ``` shell
+    $ openstack server create \
+    --flavor $FLAVOR --network $NETWORK \
+    --volume {Volume ID}\
+    --wait test-server
+    ```
+4. List volumes once again to ensure the status has changed to in-use and the volume is correctly reporting the attachment.
+    ``` shell
+    openstack volume list
+    ```
+    ``` shell
+    openstack server volume list test-server
+    ```
