Basic Concepts
Images are classified as public, private, and shared.
Image Type |
Description |
---|---|
Public |
A public image is a standard, widely used image. It contains an OS and preinstalled public applications and is available to all users. Public images are very stable and their OS and any included software have been officially authorized for use. If a public image does not contain the environments or software you need, you can use a public image to create an ECS and then deploy the required environments or software on it. Public images include the following OSs to choose from: Ubuntu and CentOS For more information, see Managing Public Images. |
Private |
A private image contains an OS or service data, preinstalled public applications, and a user's personal applications. Private images are only available to the users who created them. A private image can be a system disk image, data disk image, ISO image, or full-ECS image.
|
Shared |
A shared image is a private image another user has shared with you. For more information, see Sharing Images. |
You can modify an image, share images, export images, encrypt images, replicate images, export an image list, and delete images.
Feature |
Description |
Helpful Link |
---|---|---|
Modifying an image |
You can modify the following attributes of an image: name, description, minimum memory, maximum memory, and advanced functions such as NIC multi-queue and SR-IOV driver. |
|
Sharing images |
You can share an image with other Huawei Cloud accounts. These accounts can use your shared private image to quickly create ECSs or EVS disks. |
|
Exporting images |
You can export private images to your OBS bucket and download them to your local PC for backup. |
|
Encrypting images |
You can create encrypted images to improve data security. KMS envelope encryption is used. Encrypted images can be created from external image files or encrypted ECSs. |
|
Replicating images within a region |
By replicating images within a region, you can convert encrypted and unencrypted images into each other or enable some advanced features, for example, fast instance provisioning. |
|
Tagging an image |
You can tag your private images for easy management and search. |
|
Exporting image list |
You can export the public or private image list in a given region as a CSV file for local maintenance and query. |
|
Deleting images |
You can delete images that will be no longer used. Deleting an image does not affect the ECSs created from that image. |
