Note
|
|
|
|
While creating a new Virtual Machine, you have to choose the source from which the VM will be built:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you choose “Image”, you can choose the option “Create New Volume”: Yes or No.
|
|
|
|
By default the option “No” is chosen.
|
|
|
|
**Option: Create New Volume - Yes**
|
|
|
|
This option allows you to choose the system volume different from that defined in the flavor:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Now you can choose the Volume Size.
|
|
|
|
In the example below we will choose the volume 15 GB and apply it to the flavor eo1.xsmall.
|
|
|
|
Default size of the system disk for flavor eo1.xsmall is 8 GB:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
After choosing the other parameters (Details, Flavor, Networks, Security Group and Key Pair) you can launch the instance:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
You can see the VM created:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you go to Volumes -> Volumes pane you can see the system volume which the new VM is built on:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you click on “Edit Volume” button, you will see that the volume is bootable:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you previously have chosen “Delete Volume on Instance Delete”: No
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
and now you will delete the VM:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
then the volume will remain (not attached to any instance):
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
You can now create a new VM from the volume choosing “Launch as Instance”:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
you can choose different new flavor (eg. eo1.xmedium) than original (eo1.xsmall):
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
After choosing other parameters (Details, Networks, Security Group and Key Pair) you can launch the instance.
