126 <para>
127 Creates new instance in the Cloud.
128 There are two standard ways to create an instance in the Cloud:
129 1. Create an instance from an existing custom image.
130 2. Create an instance from an existing bootable volume. This bootable volume shouldn't be attached to any instance.
131 For the 1st approach next parameters are required: image-id and boot-disk-size.
132 For the 2nd approach next parameters are required: boot-volume-id;
133 The rest parameters are common for both cases:
134 display-name, launch-mode, subnet-id, publicIP, privateIP, shape, domain.
