External Image File Formats and Supported OSs

External File Formats

Image files in VMDK, VHD, QCOW2, RAW, VHDX, QED, VDI, QCOW, ISO, ZVHD2, or ZVHD format can be used to create private images. Select whichever format best meeting your requirements.

Supported OSs

When you upload an external image file to an OBS bucket on the management console, the OS contained in the image file will be checked. Table 1 and Table 2 list the OSs supported by external image files.

If the OS cannot be identified or is not supported:

  • For Windows, Other_Windows (64_bit) or Other_Windows (32_bit) will be selected during image registration.
  • For Linux, Other_Linux (64_bit) or Other_Linux (32_bit) will be selected during image registration.
  • Uploading image files containing OSs not listed in Table 1 and Table 2 may fail. You are advised to contact the administrator before uploading these image files.
  • When uploading a CoreOS image file, set the OS type to CoreOS. Otherwise, the OS type will be set to Other (64bit). In addition, ensure that coreos-cloudinit has been installed and configured for CoreOS. Automatic system upgrades must be disabled. Otherwise, they may make ECSs created from this image unavailable.

For how to upload external image files, see "Uploading an Image File (Windows)" and "Uploading an Image File (Linux)".

After an external image file is successfully uploaded, you can register this image file as a private image on the cloud platform. For details, see "Registering an External Image File as a Private Image (Windows)" and "Registering an External Image File as a Private Image (Linux)".
