|
---|
7 | <p>The following describes the sequence of events when you import an instance from <ph
|
---|
8 | conkeyref="vbox-conkeyref-phrases/oci"/>. </p>
|
---|
9 | <ul>
|
---|
10 | <li>
|
---|
11 | <p>A custom image is created from the boot volume of the instance. </p>
|
---|
12 | </li>
|
---|
13 | <li>
|
---|
14 | <p>The custom image is exported to an <ph conkeyref="vbox-conkeyref-phrases/oci"/> object and is stored using
|
---|
15 | Object Storage in the bucket specified by the user. </p>
|
---|
16 | </li>
|
---|
17 | <li>
|
---|
18 | <p>The <ph conkeyref="vbox-conkeyref-phrases/oci"/> object is downloaded to the local host. The object is a TAR
|
---|
19 | archive which contains a boot volume of the instance in QCOW2 format and a JSON file containing metadata
|
---|
20 | related to the instance. </p>
|
---|
21 | </li>
|
---|
22 | <li>
|
---|
23 | <p>The boot volume of the instance is extracted from the archive and a new VMDK image is created by converting
|
---|
24 | the boot volume into the VMDK format. The VMDK image is registered with <ph
|
---|
25 | conkeyref="vbox-conkeyref-phrases/product-name"/>. </p>
|
---|
26 | </li>
|
---|
27 | <li>
|
---|
28 | <p>A new VM is created using the VMDK image for the cloud instance. </p>
|
---|
29 | <p>By default, the new VM is not started after import from <ph conkeyref="vbox-conkeyref-phrases/oci"/>. </p>
|
---|
30 | </li>
|
---|
31 | <li>
|
---|
32 | <p>The downloaded TAR archive is deleted after a successful import. </p>
|
---|
33 | </li>
