What Do I Do If I Cannot Find a Desired Image?¶
You can view OS types and versions on the Public Images page on the management console. If you cannot find a desired image, you have the following options:
Download an image file from the official OS website and then use the file to create a private image. For details, see Creating a Windows System Disk Image from an External Image File or Creating a Linux System Disk Image from an External Image File. The external image file can be in the VMDK, VHD, QCOW2, RAW, VHDX, QED, VDI, QCOW, ZVHD2, or ZVHD format.
If the image belongs to another tenant, ask the tenant to share it with you. For details about image sharing, see Sharing Specified Images.
