Creating Image using web-based method
Once you upload the OVA files to Google Cloud Storage bucket, you need to create a Image from the OVA files that you have uploaded. This image can be later used to launch the instances for deploying Resiliency Manger, Infrastructure Manager in Google Cloud Platform.
To create image
- Login to the Google Cloud Platform console.
- Navigate to Images and click on Create Image.
- Enter a name for image.
- Select the Source as Virtual Disk.
- In Cloud Storage file, browse the OVA uploaded into your bucket.
- In Operating System on virtual disk, select No operating system. Data only.
- Click Create.
It will start importing image from the selected OVA file.
Note:
If your default VPC setting for "Subnet creation mode" from the project is set to "Custom subnets" then create image will not work from Google Cloud Platform console. In that case, you need to use command-based method only.
