Creating an Encrypted Image
Introduction
You can create an encrypted image from an image file or an encrypted ECS.
- Create an encrypted image from an image file.
When you register an image file as a private image, select KMS encryption and select a key. For details, see Creating a System Disk Image from an Image File.
- Create an encrypted image from an encrypted ECS.
When you use an ECS to create a private image, if the system disk of the ECS is encrypted, the private image created from this ECS will also be encrypted. The key used for encrypting the image is the same as that used for encrypting the system disk. For details, see Creating a System Disk Image from an ECS.
