When we create a snapshot of a server that is volume-backed, glance creates a zero sized metadata entry of the image which is backed by the volume snapshot. When we try to reimage a volume with that given image, we need to fetch the volume snapshot details from the image metadata. Now to reimage, we need to create a new volume from snapshot and copy the data from our snapshot-volume to our original volume for which we use the generic revert to snapshot mechanism as it performs the same steps.
