        Basic Concepts

        +

        Images are classified as public, private, and shared.

        + +
        + + + + + + + + + + + + + +

        Image Type

        +

        Description

        +

        Public image

        +

        A public image is a standard, widely used image. It contains an OS and preinstalled public applications and is available to all users. Public images are very stable and their OS and any included software have been officially authorized for use. If a public image does not contain the environments or software you need, you can use a public image to create an ECS and then deploy the required environments or software on it.

        +

        Private image

        +

        A private image contains an OS or service data, preinstalled public applications, and a user's personal applications. Private images are only available to the users who created them.

        +

        A private image can be a system disk image, data disk image, or full-ECS image.

        +
        • A system disk image contains an OS and preinstalled software for various services. You can use a system disk image to create ECSs and migrate your services to the cloud.
        • A data disk image contains only service data. You can use a data disk image to create EVS disks and use them to migrate your service data to the cloud.
        • A full-ECS image contains an OS, preinstalled software, and service data. A full-ECS image is created using differential backups and the creation takes less time than creating a system or data disk image of the same size.
        +

        Shared image

        +

        A shared image is a private image another user has shared with you.

        +

        For more information about shared images, see "Sharing Images" in Image Management Service User Guide.

        +
        +
        +

        You can modify an image, share images, export images, encrypt images, replicate images, export an image list, and delete images.

        +

        Modifying an image

        +

        To facilitate private image management, you can modify the following attributes of an image: name, description, minimum memory, maximum memory, and advanced functions such as NIC multi-queue and SR-IOV driver.

        +

        Modifying an Image

        +

        Sharing images

        +

        You can share an image with other accounts. These accounts can use your shared private image to quickly create ECSs or EVS disks.

        +        		 +

        Exporting images

        +

        You can export private images to your OBS bucket and download them to your local PC for backup.

        +        		 +

        Encrypting images

        +

        You can create encrypted images to improve data security. The encryption mode is KMS envelope encryption.

        +

        Encrypted images can be created from external image files or encrypted ECSs.

        +        		 +

        Replicating images

        +

        By replicating images, you can convert encrypted and unencrypted images into each other or enable some advanced features, for example, quick instance provisioning.

        +

        Replicating Images

        +

        Tagging an image

        +

        You can tag your private images for easy management and search.

        +

        Tagging an Image

        +

        Exporting image list

        +

        You can export the public or private image list in a given region in CSV format, facilitating local maintenance and query.

        +

        Exporting Image List

        +

        Deleting images

        +

        You can delete images that will be no longer used. Deleting an image does not affect the ECSs created from that image.

        What Are the Differences Between Sharing Images and Replicating Images?

        +
        • Sharing images:

          You can only share images within a region with other users. To share an image across regions, replicate the image to the target region and then share it. For details, see Overview.

          +
        • Replicating images:
          • You can convert encrypted and unencrypted images into each other or enable some advanced features (such as fast ECS creation from an image) using the image replication function.
          +
        +

        Share

        +

        The image is shared with another user in the same region. The target user can use the image (with the same ID as the source image) but the image owner is still the user who shared it.

        +

        For details, see Sharing Specified Images.

        In-region replication under the same account

        +

        Replicate

        +

        This is used for conversion between encrypted images and unencrypted images or for enabling advanced features (such as fast ECS creation from an image).

        Why Do I Need to Install VMTools?

        VMTools is a VirtIO driver (para-virtualization driver) that provides high-performance disks and NICs for ECSs.

        +
        • A standard Windows OS does not have the VirtIO driver.
        • Public images have VMTools by default.
        • You need to install VMTools for private images. For details, see Installing UVP VMTools.
        +
        +

        Why Do I Need to Update VMTools?

        The cloud platform periodically synchronizes issue-fixed versions from the VirtIO community and releases updated versions every month. This ensures that known issues identified in the community or R&D tests can be avoided on the latest driver.

        +
        +

        When Do I Need to Update VMTools?

        • If a major error is fixed, you are advised to update VMTools immediately. (Major errors have not occurred by now.) If other issues are fixed, choose whether to update VMTools based on your needs.
        • The cloud platform updates the VMTools stored in an OBS bucket on a regular basis to ensure that you can download the latest version of VMTools for private images.
        • The cloud platform updates public images on a regular basis to ensure that these images have the latest version of VMTools.
        • The document is updated on a regular basis in accordance with VMTools in an OBS bucket to ensure that the download link of VMTools provided in the document is the latest.
        +
        +

        What Do I Need to Do After VMTools Is Updated?

        • Update Windows private images or drivers in running Windows ECSs.
        • If you have any technical issue or question, contact the customer service.

        Introduction

        A private image is an image available only to the user who created it. It contains an OS, preinstalled public applications, and a user's personal applications. A private image can be a system disk image, data disk image, or full-ECS image. It can be created from a cloud server or an external image file.

        Creating a private image does not affect the running of services on the cloud server or cause data loss.

        Product Advantages

        +

        IMS provides convenient, secure, flexible, and efficient image management. Images allow you to deploy services faster, more easily and more securely.

        +

        Saving Time and Effort

        • Deploying services on cloud servers is much faster and easier when you use images.
        • A private image can be created from an ECS or an external image file. It can be a system, disk, or full-ECS image that suites your different needs.
        • Private images can be transferred between accounts, regions, or cloud platforms through image sharing, replication, and export.
        +
        +

        Secure

        • Public images use mainstream OSs such as Ubuntu and CentOS. These OSs have been thoroughly tested to provide secure and stable services.
        • Multiple copies of image files are stored on Object Storage Service (OBS), which provides excellent data reliability and durability.
        • Private images can be encrypted for data security by using envelope encryption provided by Key Management Service (KMS).
        +
        +

        Flexible

        • You can manage images through the management console or using APIs.
        • You can use a public image to deploy a general-purpose environment, or use a private image to deploy a custom environment.
        • You can use IMS to migrate servers to the cloud or on the cloud, and back up server running environments.
        +
        +

        Unified

        • IMS provides a self-service platform to simplify image management and maintenance.
        • IMS allows you to batch deploy and upgrade application systems, improving O&M efficiency and ensuring consistency.
        • Public images comply with industry standards. Preinstalled components only include clean installs, and only kernels from well-known third-party vendors are used to make it easier to transfer images from or to other cloud platforms.

        +

        Select an appropriate OS, database, and various software packages based on your service requirements. Then, install and commission them.

        +

        Security

        +

        You only need to identify sources of shared images. Public and private images have been thoroughly tested to ensure security and stability.

        +

        The security depends on the skills of the R&D or O&M personnel.

            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 lists the OSs supported by external image files.

            • Uploading image files containing OSs not listed in Table 1 may fail. You are advised to contact the customer service before uploading these image files.
            • For details about the formats and OSs supported for BMS images, see Bare Metal Server Private Image Creation Guide.
            • 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 using this image unavailable.
            • You can only use external image files containing Windows 10 64bit or Windows 7 Enterprise 64bit to create ECSs on a Dedicated Host (DeH).

              Setting the NIC to DHCP

              Scenarios

              If a private image is created from an ECS or external image file and the VM where the ECS or external image file is located is configured with a static IP address, you need to change the NIC attribute to DHCP so that the new ECSs created from the private image can dynamically obtain an IP address.

              -

              The configuration method varies depending on OSs.

              The configuration method varies depending on OSs.

              When registering an external image file as a private image, configure DHCP on the VM where the external image file is located. You are advised to configure DHCP on the VM and then export the image file.

              Prerequisites

              You have logged in to the ECS used to create a Windows private image.

              For details about how to log in to an ECS, see Elastic Cloud Server User Guide.

              Procedure

              This section uses Ubuntu 16.04 as an example to describe how to query and configure NIC attributes of an ECS.

              -
              1. Run the following command on the ECS to open the /etc/network/interfaces file using the vi editor and query the IP address obtaining mode:

                vi /etc/network/interfaces

                -

                  Ubuntu 18 or Later
                  1. Run vi /etc/netplan/01-netcfg.yaml on the ECS to open the /etc/netplan/01-netcfg.yaml file, and check whether the value of dhcp4 is true.
                    • If dhcp4 is set to true, enter :q to exit the editor. No further action will be required.
                       network:

                  Is There Any Difference Between the Image Created from a CSBS/CBR Backup and That Created from an ECS?

                  No.

                  You can create a full-ECS image from an ECS, a CSBS backup, or a CBR backup.
                  
+
                  When you create a full-ECS image from an ECS, the system first creates a backup for the ECS and then uses the backup to create an image. Therefore, the image is essentially created from an ECS backup no matter you use an ECS or a CSBS/CBR backup.

            What Do I Do If a Windows Image File Is Not Pre-Configured When I Use It to Register a Private Image?

            If an image file is not configured as instructed in Table 1 before it is exported from the original platform, configure it by referring to Figure 1.

            The proper running of ECSs depends on the KVM Guest OS driver (UVP VMTools), without which the performance of ECSs will be affected and some functions will be unavailable. Ensure that the driver installation has been completed for the image file before it is exported from the original platform. Otherwise, the ECSs created from the image will fail to start.

            +

            For details about how to install UVP VMTools, see Installing UVP VMTools.

                3. Locate the row that contains the private image and click Apply for Server in the Operation column.
                4. Set parameters as promoted to create an ECS. Pay attention to the following:
                  • Bind an EIP to the ECS so that you can upload installation packages to the ECS or download installation packages from the ECS.
                  • You must add inbound rules for security groups of the ECS to ensure that the ECS can be accessed.
                  • If the image file has Cloudbase-Init installed, set a password and log in to the ECS using the password as prompted. If Cloudbase-Init is not installed, use the password or certificate contained in the image file to log in the ECS.

                  For details, see Elastic Cloud Server User Guide.

                5. Perform the following steps to check whether the private image has been pre-configured:
                  1. Check whether the ECS can be successfully started. If the start succeeds, a Guest OS driver has been installed for the image file on the original platform or the driver has been automatically installed for the private image on the cloud platform. If the start failed, install a Guest OS driver for the image file on the original platform and start from Step 1: Upload the Image File again.
                  2. Check whether you can log in to the ECS using your configured password or key. If you can, Cloudbase-Init has been installed. If you cannot, use the password or key contained in the image file to log in to the ECS and install Cloudbase-Init as instructed in Installing and Configuring Cloudbase-Init.
                  3. Check whether NICs are set to DHCP by referring to 2 in Step 4: Configure the ECS.
                  4. Use MSTSC to log in to the ECS. If the login is successful, remote desktop connection is enabled on the ECS. If the login fails, enable remote desktop connection by referring to 3 in Step 4: Configure the ECS.

                  If the ECS meets the preceding requirements, the private image has been pre-configured. Skip Step 4: Configure the ECS and Step 5: Create a Private Image from the ECS.

                Procedure

                Create an ECS by referring to Creating an ECS from an Image.

                Note the following when setting the parameters:

                • Region: Select the region where the private image is located.
                • Specifications: Select a flavor based on the OS type in the image and the OS versions described in OSs Supported by Different Types of ECSs.
                • Image: Select Private image and then the created image from the drop-down list.
                • (Optional) Data Disk: Add data disks. These data disks are created from a data disk image generated together with a system disk image. In this way, you can migrate the data of data disks together with system disk data from the VM on the original platform to the current cloud platform.

                          If you use the Unattend.xml file created by yourself, check the Unattend.xml path when running Sysprep to ensure that the newly created Unattend.xml file is used.

                        On the management console, select the uploaded image file and register it as a private image. For details, see Registering an External Image File as a Private Image.

                        Step 3: Create an ECS

                        Create an ECS from the private image.

                              • You must add inbound rules for security groups of the ECS to ensure that the ECS can be accessed.
                              • If Cloud-Init has been installed in the image file, set a login password as prompted. If Cloud-Init is not installed, use the password or certificate contained in the image file to log in.

                            5. Perform the following steps to check whether the private image has been pre-configured:
                              1. Check whether the ECS can be successfully started. If the start succeeds, the KVM driver has been installed for the external image file on the original platform or the driver has been automatically installed for the private image on the cloud platform. If the start failed, install the KVM driver as needed for the image file and start from Step 1: Upload the Image File again.
                              2. Check whether you can log in to the ECS using your configured password or key. If you can, Cloud-Init has been installed. If you cannot, use the password or key contained in the image file to log in to the ECS and install Cloud-Init as instructed in Installing Cloud-Init.
                              3. Check the network configuration by referring to Step 4: Configure the ECS.

                              If the ECS meets the preceding requirements, the private image has been pre-configured. Skip Step 4: Configure the ECS and Step 5: Create a Private Image from the ECS.

                    Overview

                    You can share your private images with other tenants. The tenants who accept the shared images can use the images to create ECSs of the same specifications.

                    -

                    Constraints

                    • You can share images only within the region where they reside.
                    • A system disk image or data disk image can be shared with up to 256 tenants, and a full-ECS image can be shared with no more than 10 tenants.
                    • If an encrypted image needs to be shared with other tenants, the key of the image must be a custom key instead of the default key ims/default.
                    • Only full-ECS images created from CBR backups can be shared. Other full-ECS images cannot be shared.
                    +

                    The cloud platform is not responsible for the integrity or security of shared images. When you use a shared image, ensure that the image is from a trusted sharer.

                        After accepting a data disk image shared by another tenant, you can use the image to create EVS disks (locate the row that contains the image and click Create Data Disk in the Operation column).

                        After accepting the encrypted image shared by another tenant, you can use the image to apply for ECSs or EVS disks or replace the key of the image with your own key by replicating the shared image. The replacement prevents the shared image from being unavailable when the tenant who shares the image cancels the key authorization.

                            • If the full-ECS image contains multiple data disks, it takes some time to load and display the disk information.
                          • If you use a full-ECS image to change an ECS OS, only the system disk data can be written into the ECS. Therefore, if you want to restore or migrate the data disk data of an ECS by using a full-ECS image, you can only use the image to create a new ECS rather than use it to change the ECS OS.
                          • If you want to share a full-ECS image with other tenants, you must migrate resources to the CBR service because only full-ECS images created from CBR backups can be shared.

              4. Optimize a system disk image so that it can be used to quickly create ECSs.

                Fast Create greatly reduces the time required for creating ECSs from a system disk image. Currently, this feature is supported by all newly created system disk images by default. Existing system disk images may not support this function. You can optimize the images using the image replication function. For example, if image A does not support fast ECS creation, you can replicate it to generate image copy_A that supports fast ECS creation.

                      How Can I Back Up the Current Status of an ECS for Restoration in the Case of a System Fault?

                      +

                      You can back up the ECS in any of the following ways:

                      +
                      • (Recommended) Use CBR to create a scheduled backup task for the ECS. If the ECS fails, select a backup corresponding to the time you want the ECS to restore to, create a full-ECS image from the backup, and use the image to apply for a new ECS or to reinstall the OS.
                      • Create a system disk image from the ECS. If the ECS fails, use the system disk image to apply for a new ECS or to reinstall the OS.
                      • Create a snapshot for the system disk of the ECS. If the ECS fails, you can roll it back from the snapshot.

                For Debian 9, use method 1 to install growpart. If the installation fails, use method 2 to install growpart.

                -

                Method 1:

                -

                Run the following command to install growpart:

                -

                apt-get install -y -f cloud-init cloud-utils cloud-initramfs-growroot

                -

                Method 2:

                -
                If method 1 fails, it may be because the installation source of Debian 9.0.0 is faulty. You need to download dependent packages cloud-utils and cloud-initramfs-growroot and install them.
                1. Run the following command to download the dependent packages:

                  wget Package download path

                  -

                  You can obtain the dependent packages from the following paths:

                  -

                  http://ftp.br.debian.org/debian/pool/main/c/cloud-utils/cloud-utils_0.29-1_all.deb

                  -

                  http://ftp.br.debian.org/debian/pool/main/c/cloud-initramfs-tools/cloud-initramfs-growroot_0.18.debian5_all.deb

                  -
                2. Run the following command to rectify the dependent packages:

                  apt --fix-broken install

                  -
                3. Run the following command to install the dependent packages:

                  dpkg -i cloud-utils package path cloud-initramfs-growroot package path

                  -

                  An example command is dpkg -i /root/cloud-utils_0.29-1_all.deb /root/cloud-initramfs-growroot_0.18.debian5_all.deb.

                  -
                -
                -

                For other Debian versions, run the following command to install dependent packages:

                -

                apt-get update;apt-get install cloud-utils cloud-initramfs-growroot

                -
                - -

                Procedure

                Take the following as two examples of image disk partitioning:

                -

                If the root partition is the last partition, see Root partition at the last.

                -

                If the root partition is not the last partition, see Root partition not at the last.

                -
                If the parted command fails, ensure that the parted tool has been installed in the OS. Perform the following operations to install the tool:
                • For CentOS, run the following command:

                  yum install parted

                  -
                • For Debian, run the following command:

                  apt-get install parted

                  -
                -
                -
                -
                • Root partition at the last (/dev/xvda1: swap and /dev/xvda2: root)

                  For example, if the system disk size of CentOS 6.5 64bit is 40 GB, perform the following operations to configure a Linux private image so that it can automatically expand its root partition:

                  -
                  1. Run the following command to query the partitions of /dev/xvda:

                    parted -l /dev/xvda

                    -

                    As shown in the command output, the root partition is the second partition and is 38.7 GB.

                    -

                    -
                  2. Install growpart to ensure that the image can automatically expand its root partition.

                    Run the following command to install growpart:

                    -

                    yum install cloud-*

                    -

                    growpart may be contained in the cloud-utils-growpart/cloud-utils/cloud-initramfs-tools/cloud-init package. You can run the preceding command directly and then run the growpart command to check whether growpart has been installed successfully.

                    -
                    -
                  3. Run the following command to obtain the file system type and UUID:

                    blkid

                    -

                    The command output is as follows:

                    -
                    /dev/xvda1: UUID="25ec3bdb-ba24-4561-bcdc-802edf42b85f" TYPE="swap" 
-/dev/xvda2: UUID="1a1ce4de-e56a-4e1f-864d-31b7d9dfb547" TYPE="ext4"
                    -
                  4. Stop the ECS and use it to create a private image.
                    [root@sluo-ecs-e6dc-resizefs ~]# poweroff 
-Connection closed by foreign host.

                    -
                  5. Use the created image to create an ECS with a 50 GB system disk. Log in to the ECS and run the following command to query the expanded partitions:

                    parted -l /dev/xvda

                    -

                    As shown in the command output, the root partition has been expanded automatically.

                        When the image status changes to Normal, the image creation is complete.

                    Follow-up Procedure

                    If you want to use the created data disk image to create an EVS disk and attach it to an ECS, you can perform either of the following operations:

                    -
                    • Locate the row that contains the created data disk image and click Create Data Disk to create one or multiple data disks. Then attach the data disks to an ECS.
                    • On the page for creating ECSs, click Create Disk from Data Disk Image and select the data disk image.

                      A data disk image can be used to create a data disk for an ECS only once.

                      +
                      • Locate the row that contains the created data disk image and click Create Data Disk to create one or multiple data disks. Then attach the data disks to an ECS.
                      • On the page for creating ECSs, click Create Disk from Data Disk Image and select the data disk image.

                        In this way, a data disk image can be used to create a data disk for an ECS only once. For example, a data disk created from data disk image data_disk_image has been added to the ECS. No any other data disk created from this image can be added to the ECS.

                        How Do I Configure an ECS to Dynamically Acquire IPv6 Addresses?
                        
+
                        Scenarios
                        IPv6 addresses are used to deal with IPv4 address exhaustion. If an ECS uses an IPv4 address, the ECS can run in dual-stack mode after IPv6 is enabled for it. Then, the ECS will have two IP addresses to access the intranet and Internet: an IPv4 address and an IPv6 address.
                        
+
                        In some cases, an ECS cannot dynamically acquire an IPv6 address even if it meets all the requirements in Constraints. You need to configure the ECS to dynamically acquire IPv6 addresses. For public images:
                        
+
                        • By default, dynamic IPv6 address assignment is enabled for Windows public images. You do not need to configure it. The operations in Windows Server 2012 are for your reference only.
                        • Before enabling dynamic IPv6 address assignment for a Linux public image, check whether IPv6 has been enabled and then whether dynamic IPv6 address assignment has been enabled. Currently, IPv6 is enabled for all Linux public images.
                        
+
                        
+
                        Constraints
                        • Ensure that IPv6 has been enabled on the subnet where the ECS works.
                          For details about how to enable IPv6 on a subnet, see Enabling IPv6 on the Subnet Where the ECS Works.
                          
+
                        • Ensure that the ECS flavor supports IPv6. Currently, S3, C4, and M4 ECSs support IPv6.
                        • Ensure that Self-assigned IPv6 address is selected during ECS creation.
                        
+
                        • After the ECS is started, its hot-swappable NICs cannot automatically acquire IPv6 addresses.
                        • Only ECSs can work in dual-stack mode and BMSs cannot.
                        • Only one IPv6 address can be bound to a NIC.
                        
+
                        
+
                        Procedure
                        • Windows: Windows Server 2012 is used as an example to describe how to enable dynamic assignment of IPv6 addresses in Windows.
                        • Linux: Dynamic assignment of IPv6 addresses can be enabled automatically (recommended) or manually.
                          If a private image created from a CentOS 6.x or Debian ECS with automatic IPv6 address assignment enabled is used to create an ECS in an environment that does not support IPv6, the ECS may start slow because of IPv6 address assignment timeout. You can set the timeout duration for assigning IPv6 addresses by referring to Setting the Timeout Duration for IPv6 Address Assignment.

                        1. Check whether IPv6 is enabled for the ECS.
                          Run the following command in the CMD window to check it:
                          
+
                          ipconfig
                          
+
                          • If an IPv6 address and a link-local IPv6 address are displayed, IPv6 is enabled and dynamic IPv6 assignment is also enabled.

                        Linux (Automatically Enabling Dynamic Assignment of IPv6 Addresses)
                        The ipv6-setup-xxx tool can be used to enable Linux OSs to automatically acquire IPv6 addresses. xxx indicates a tool, which can be rhel or debian.
                        
+
                        You can also enable dynamic IPv6 address assignment by following the instructions in Linux (Manually Enabling Dynamic Assignment of IPv6 Addresses).
                        
+
                         
                        • When you run ipv6-setup-xxx, the network service will be automatically restarted. As a result, the network is temporarily disconnected.
                        • If a private image created from a CentOS 6.x or Debian ECS with automatic IPv6 address assignment enabled is used to create an ECS in an environment that does not support IPv6, the ECS may start slow because of IPv6 address assignment timeout. Set the timeout duration for assigning IPv6 addresses to 30s by referring to Setting the Timeout Duration for IPv6 Address Assignment and try to create a new private image again.
                        
+
                        
+
                        
+
                        1. Run the following command to check whether IPv6 is enabled for the ECS:
                          ip addr
                          
+
                          • If only an IPv4 address is displayed, IPv6 is disabled. Enable it by referring to Setting the Timeout Duration for IPv6 Address Assignment.
                            Figure 7 IPv6 disabled
                            
+
                          • If a link-local address (starting with fe80) is displayed, IPv6 is enabled but dynamic assignment of IPv6 addresses is not enabled.
                            Figure 8 IPv6 enabled
                            
+
                          • If the following address is displayed, IPv6 is enabled and an IPv6 address has been assigned:
                            Figure 9 IPv6 enabled and an IPv6 address assigned
                            
+
                          
+
                           
                          IPv6 is enabled for Linux public images by default, as shown in Figure 8.
                          
+
                          
+
                        2. Enable IPv6 for the ECS.
                          1. Run the following command to check whether IPv6 is enabled for the kernel:
                            sysctl -a | grep ipv6
                            
+
                            • If a command output is displayed, IPv6 is enabled.
                            • If no information is displayed, IPv6 is disabled. Go to 2.b to load the IPv6 module.
                            
+
                          2. Run the following command to load the IPv6 module:
                            modprobe ipv6
                            
+
                          3. Add the following content to the /etc/sysctl.conf file:
                            net.ipv6.conf.all.disable_ipv6=0
                            
+
                          4. Save the configuration and exit. Then, run the following command to load the configuration:
                            sysctl -p
                            
+
                          
+
                        3. Enable dynamic IPv6 address assignment for the ECS.
                          1. Download ipv6-setup-rhel or ipv6-setup-debian with a required version and upload it to the target ECS.
                            ipv6-setup-xxx modifies the configuration file of a NIC to enable dynamic IPv6 address assignment or adds such a configuration file for a NIC, and then restarts the NIC or network service. 
                            
+
                            Contact the administrator to obtain the download paths of ipv6-setup-rhel and ipv6-setup-debian.
                            
+
                          2. Run the following command to make ipv6-setup-xxx executable:
                            chmod +x ipv6-setup-xxx
                            
+
                          3. Run the following command to enable dynamic IPv6 address assignment for a NIC:
                            ./ipv6-setup-xxx --dev [dev]

                            • If a command output is displayed, IPv6 is enabled.
                            • If no information is displayed, IPv6 is disabled. Go to 2.b to load the IPv6 module.
                            
+
                          2. Run the following command to load the IPv6 module:
                            modprobe ipv6
                            
+
                          3. Add the following content to the /etc/sysctl.conf file:
                            net.ipv6.conf.all.disable_ipv6=0
                            
+
                          4. Save the configuration and exit. Then, run the following command to load the configuration:
                            sysctl -p

+
                            2. Edit the /etc/sysconfig/network file to add or modify the following line:
                              NETWORKING_IPV6=yes
                              
+
                            3. For an ECS running CentOS 6, you need to edit the configuration files of its extension NICs. For example, if the extension NIC is eth1, you need to edit /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth1.
                              Add the following configuration items to the file:
                              IPV6INIT=yes
+DHCPV6C=yes

+
                              In CentOS 6.3, dhcpv6-client requests are filtered by ip6tables by default. So, you also need to add a rule allowing the dhcpv6-client request to the ip6tables file.
                              
+
                              1. Run the following command to add the rule to ip6tables:
                                ip6tables -A INPUT -m state --state NEW -m udp -p udp --dport 546 -d fe80::/64 -j ACCEPT
                                
+
                              2. Run the following command to save the rule in ip6tables:
                                service ip6tables save

+
                              2. Run the following command to change the IPv6 link-local address mode of eth1 to EUI64:
                                nmcli con modify "Wired connection 1" ipv6.addr-gen-mode eui64
                                
+
                                 
                                The NIC information varies depending on the CentOS series. In the command, Wired connection 1 needs to be replaced with the value in the NAME column of the queried NIC information.

                        Setting the Timeout Duration for IPv6 Address Assignment
                        After automatic IPv6 address assignment is configured on an ECS running CentOS 6.x or Debian, the ECS will be created as a private image. When this image is used to create an ECS in an environment that IPv6 is unavailable, the ECS may start slow because acquiring an IPv6 address times out. Before creating the private image, you can set the timeout duration for acquiring IPv6 addresses to 30s as follows:
                        
+
                        • CentOS 6.x:
                          1. Run the following command to edit the dhclient.conf file:

                    Cloud-Init

                    +

                    You are advised to install Cloud-Init on the ECS that will be used to create a private image so that new ECSs created from the private image support custom configurations (for example, changing the ECS login password).

                    +

                    For details about how to install Cloud-Init, see Installing Cloud-Init.

                    +

                    For details about how to configure Cloud-Init, see Configuring Cloud-Init.

                    +

                    The following describes common problems you may encounter when installing Cloud-Init and their solutions.

                    +

                    Ubuntu 16.04/CentOS 7: Failed to Set Cloud-Init Automatic Start

                    • Symptom:

                      After Cloud-Init is installed, run the following command to set Cloud-Init automatic start:

                      +

                      systemctl enable cloud-init-local.service cloud-init.service cloud-config.service cloud-final.service

                      +

                      Information similar to the following is displayed:

                      +
                      Figure 1 Failed to enable Cloud-Init to start automatically
                      +
                    • Solution:
                      1. Run the following command to roll back the configuration:

                        systemctl unmask cloud-init-local.service cloud-init.service cloud-config.service cloud-final.service

                        +
                      2. Run the following command to set automatic start again:

                        systemctl enable cloud-init-local.service cloud-init.service cloud-config.service cloud-final.service

                        +
                      3. Run the following command to check the Cloud-Init status:

                        systemctl status cloud-init-local.service cloud-init.service cloud-config.service cloud-final.service

                        +

                        As shown in the following figures, failed is displayed and all services are in the inactive state.

                        +

                        This is because the address that the system uses to access Cloud-Init is redirected to /usr/bin/, but the actual installation path is /usr/local/bin.

                        +
                      4. Run the following command to copy Cloud-Init to the usr/bin directory:

                        cp /usr/local/cloud-init /usr/bin/

                        +
                      5. Run the following command to restart Cloud-Init:

                        systemctl restart cloud-init-local.service cloud-init.service cloud-config.service cloud-final.service

                      chkconfig is not installed.

                      +
                    • Solution:

                      Run the following commands to install chkconfig:

                      +

                      apt-get update

                      +

                      +
                    • Cause analysis

                      This alarm is generated because C version of NameMapper needs to be compiled when Cloud-Init is installed. However, GCC is not installed in the system, and the compilation cannot be performed. As a result, NameMapper is missing.

                    • Solution

                      Run the following command to install GCC:

                      +

                      yum -y install gcc

                      +

                Integrating the VMTools Driver into an ISO File

                +

                Scenarios

                A Windows system with the Integrated Drive Electronics (IDE) hard drive and Virtio NIC is used on the cloud. Therefore, you need to integrate the VMTools driver into the ISO file of Windows before registering an image on the cloud platform. Typically, an ISO file contains all the files that would be included on an optical disc. Some software can be installed only from a CD-ROM drive. So, a virtual CD-ROM drive is required.

                +

                This section uses AnyBurn and UltraISO as examples to describe how to integrate the VMTools driver into an ISO file.

                +
                • AnyBurn is lightweight CD/DVD/Blu-ray burning software with a free version.
                • UltraISO is an ISO CD/DVD image file handling tool. A free trial version is limited to ISO files of 300 MB or less. You are advised to buy a standard version.
                +
                +
                +

                Prerequisites

                You have obtained an ISO file.

                +

                The ISO file name can contain only letters, digits, hyphens (-), and underscores (_). If the name does not meet the requirements, change it.

                +
                +
                +

                Overview

                +

                An ISO file is a disk image of an optical disc. A large number of data files can be compressed into a single ISO file. Likewise, to access the files stored in an ISO, the ISO file needs to be decompressed. For example, you can use a virtual CD-ROM to open an ISO file, or burn the ISO file to a CD or DVD and then use the CD-ROM to read the image.

                +

                This section describes how to create a Windows system disk image from an ISO file.

                +

                Creation Process

                Figure 1 shows the process of creating a Windows system disk image from an ISO file.

                +
                Figure 1 Creating a Windows system disk image
                +

                The procedure is as follows:

                +
                1. Integrate the VMTools driver into the ISO file

                  Windows uses the IDE disk and VirtIO NIC. Before registering an image on the cloud platform, integrate the VMTools driver into the Windows ISO file. For details, see Integrating the VMTools Driver into an ISO File.

                  +
                2. Register the ISO file as an ISO image.

                  On the management console, register the ISO file that has integrated the VMTools driver as an image. The image is an ISO image and cannot be used to provision ECSs. For details, see Registering an ISO File as an ISO Image.

                  +
                3. Create a temporary ECS from the ISO image.

                  Use the registered ISO image to create a temporary ECS. The ECS has no OS or driver installed. For details, see Creating a Windows ECS from an ISO Image.

                  +
                4. Install an OS and necessary drivers for the temporary ECS and configure related settings.

                  The operations include installing an OS and VMTools driver, and configuring NIC attributes. For details, see Installing a Windows OS and the VMTools Driver and 1 in Configuring the ECS and Creating a Windows System Disk Image.

                  +
                5. Create a system disk image from the temporary ECS.

                  On the management console, create a system disk image from the temporary ECS on which the installation and configuration have been completed. After the image is created, delete the temporary ECS to prevent it from occupying compute resources. For details, see Creating a System Disk Image from a Windows ECS.

                  +
                +
                +

                Constraints

                • An ISO image created from an ISO file is used only for creating a temporary ECS. It will not be available on the ECS console. You cannot use it to create ECSs or change ECS OSs. You need to install an OS on the temporary ECS and use that ECS to create a system disk image which can be used to create ECSs or change ECS OSs.
                • A temporary ECS has limited functionality. For example, you cannot attach disks to it. You are not advised to use it as a normal ECS.

                Configuring the ECS and Creating a Windows System Disk Image

                +

                Scenarios

                After installing an OS for the temporary ECS, configure the ECS and install the Guest OS drivers provided by the cloud platform to ensure that ECSs created subsequently are available.

                +

                This section describes how to configure a Windows ECS, install the Guest OS drivers, and create a Windows system disk image.

                +
                +

                Procedure

                1. Configure the ECS.

                  1. Check whether NICs are set to DHCP. If the ECS is configured with a static IP address, change its IP address assignment mode to DHCP as instructed in Setting the NIC to DHCP.
                  2. Enable remote desktop connection for the ECS as needed. For details about how to enable this function, see Enabling Remote Desktop Connection.
                  3. Install and configure Cloudbase-Init. User data injection on the management console is available for the new ECSs created from the image only after this tool is installed. For example, you can use data injection to set the login password for a new ECS. For details, see Installing and Configuring Cloudbase-Init.
                  4. (Optional) Configure value-added functions.
                    Enable NIC multi-queue. For details, see How Do I Enable NIC Multi-Queue for an Image? +
                    +
                  +

                2. Stop the ECS to make the configurations take effect.
                3. Use the ECS to create a Windows system disk image.

                  For details, see Creating a System Disk Image from a Windows ECS.

                  +

                +
                +

                Follow-up Procedure

                After the system disk image is created, delete the temporary ECS in a timely manner to prevent it from occupying compute resources.

                +

                Scenarios

                After installing an OS for the temporary ECS, configure the ECS and install the native Xen and KVM drivers to ensure that ECSs created subsequently are available.

                +

                This section describes how to configure a Linux ECS, install drivers, and create a Linux system disk image.

                +
                +

                Procedure

                1. Configure the ECS.

                  1. Configure the network.
                    • Run the ifconfig command to check whether the private IP address of the ECS is the same as that displayed on the console. If they are inconsistent, delete files from the network rule directory as instructed in Deleting Files from the Network Rule Directory.
                    • Check whether NICs are set to DHCP. If the ECS is configured with a static IP address, change its IP address assignment mode to DHCP as instructed in Setting the NIC to DHCP.
                    • Run the service sshd status command to check whether SSH is enabled. If it is disabled, run the service sshd start command to enable it. Ensure that your ECS firewall, for example, Linux iptables, allows access to SSH.
                    +
                  2. Install the drivers.

                    To ensure that the network performance and basic functions of the ECSs created from the private image are normal, install the KVM driver on the ECS used to create the image.

                    +

                    Disable your antivirus and intrusion detection software. You can enable them after installation of the Xen and KVM drivers.

                    +
                    + +
                  3. Configure a file system. +
                  4. (Optional) Configure value-added functions. +
                  +

                2. Create a Linux system disk image.

                  For details, see Creating a System Disk Image from a Linux ECS.

                  +

                +
                +

                Follow-up Procedure

                After the system disk image is created, delete the temporary ECS in a timely manner to prevent it from occupying compute resources.

                Permissions

                -

                If you need to grant different permissions to employees in your enterprise to access your IMS resources, IAM is a good choice for fine-grained permissions management. IAM provides identity authentication, permissions management, and access control, helping you secure access to your resources.

                -

                With IAM, you can use your account to create IAM users for your employees, and grant permissions to the users to control their access to specific resource types. For example, some software developers in your enterprise need to use IMS resources but must not delete them or perform any high-risk operations. To achieve this result, you can create IAM users for the software developers and grant them only the permissions required for using IMS resources.

                IMS Permissions

                By default, new IAM users do not have any permissions assigned. You need to add a user to one or more groups, and assign policies or roles to these groups. The user then inherits permissions from the groups it is a member of. This process is called authorization. After authorization, the user can perform specified operations on cloud services based on the permissions.

                -

                IMS is a project-level service deployed and accessed in specific physical regions. When you grant IMS permissions to a user group, set Scope to Region-specific projects and then select projects for the permissions to take effect. If you select All projects, the permissions will take effect for the user group in all region-specific projects. Before you access IMS, switch to a region where you have been authorized to use IMS.

                • Roles: A type of coarse-grained authorization mechanism that defines permissions related to user responsibilities. This mechanism provides only a limited number of service-level roles for authorization. When using roles to grant permissions, you need to also assign other roles on which the permissions depend to take effect. However, roles are not an ideal choice for fine-grained authorization and secure access control. -

This mechanism allows for more flexible policy-based authorization, meeting requirements for secure access control. For example, you can grant IMS users only the permissions for managing a certain type of image resources.

                  Most policies define permissions based on APIs. For the API actions supported by IMS, see "Permission Policies and Supported Actions" in Elastic Cloud Server API Reference.

                      Replicate a private image that was shared with you. The image is displayed in the private image list. You can export, share, and replicate this image, or use it to create ECSs.
                      
 
                      If the shared image to be replicated is an encrypted image, you can replace the key of the image with your own key when replicating the image. This prevents the shared image from being unavailable when the tenant who shares the image cancels the key authorization.

                                        • If the full-ECS image contains multiple data disks, it takes some time to load and display the disk information.

                                      • If you use a full-ECS image to change an ECS OS, only the system disk data can be written into the ECS. Therefore, if you want to restore or migrate the data disk data of an ECS by using a full-ECS image, you can only use the image to create a new ECS rather than use it to change the ECS OS.

                                    Is There Any Restriction on the Region When I Create ECSs Using a Shared Image?
                                    Yes. You can only create ECSs in the same region as the shared image.

                                    Can I Share Images Shared with Me with Other Tenants?
                                    You cannot directly share such images with other tenants. If you do need to do so, you can replicate a shared image to a private image and then share the private image.
                                    
 
                                    
 
                                    Can I Use an Image I Have Shared with Others to Create an ECS?
                                    Yes. After sharing an image with other tenants, you can still use the image to create an ECS and use the created ECS to create a private image.

                                    When Can I Do If I Want to Use a Rejected Image?
                                    If you have rejected an image shared by another tenant, but now want to use it, two methods are available:
                                    
+
                                    What Are the Risks of Creating ECSs Using a Shared Image?
                                    The image owner can view, stop sharing, or delete the image at any time. After the shared image is deleted, you will be unable to use the shared image to reinstall the OSs of the ECSs created from the shared image or create ECSs with the same configurations.
                                    
+
                                    The cloud platform does not ensure the integrity or security of images shared by other accounts. For security reasons, you are advised to choose only images shared by trusted accounts.

+
                                    What Are the Risks of Sharing Images with Other Tenants?
                                    Data, files, and software may be disclosed. Before sharing an image, you must take care to delete any sensitive data or important files from the image. The image recipient can use the shared image to create ECSs and use the created ECSs to create private images. If the created private images are shared with other tenants, any data leakage that occurs can be quite widespread.

                                    Can I Specify a Region or an AZ for Sharing an Image?
                                    No. When sharing an image, you can only specify a project ID. You cannot specify a region or an AZ. An image can only be shared within a given region, but once shared, it can be used in any AZ in that region.

                                    Can I Restore My Data Disks from a Data Disk Image Shared by Another Account?
                                    No. You can only use the shared image to apply for a new data disk and cannot use it to restore your existing data disks. However, you can use the new data disk for restoration by referring to Can I Import Data from a Data Disk Image to a Data Disk?

                                    When Do I Need to Replicate an Image?
                                    • In-region replication
                                      This is used for conversion between encrypted and unencrypted images or for enabling advanced features (such as fast ECS creation) for images. For details, see Replicating Images.

                                    How Long Does It Take to Replicate an Image?
                                    The time required for replicating an image depends on the network transmission speed and the number of tasks in the queue.

                                      The replicas of system disk and data disk images are stored in OBS buckets for free.

                  Creating a system disk image from an ECS or BMS

                  +

                  After creating a cloud server, you can set it up, installing whatever software or application environment you need, and then use the preconfigured server to create a system disk image. You can create new cloud servers with the custom configurations from the image, which frees you from a lot of repetitive work.

                  You can import a system disk from your local PC or other cloud platforms, and use the imported image to create new cloud servers or reinstall or change the OSs of existing cloud servers.

                  +

                  In contrast with other image formats, an ISO file can be used only after it is decompressed using a tool, such as UltraISO or VirtualBox. For details about the image creation process, see the Related Operations column in the table.

                  Creating a data disk image from an ECS

                  +

                  A data disk image only contains user data. You can create a data disk image from an ECS and then use the image to create new EVS disks. This is a convenient way to migrate data from an ECS to EVS disks.

                  What Are the Differences Between Images and Backups?

                  +

                  CBR and Image Management Service (IMS) have some complementary functions and can be used together in certain scenarios. Like CBR, IMS can also be used to back up ECSs.

                  +

                  Differences Between Backups and Images

                  Table 1 lists the differences between them.

                  +

                  Concept

                  +

                  A backup contains the status, configuration, and data of a cloud server or disk stored at a specific time point for recovery in case of a fault. It is used to ensure data security and improve availability.

                  +

                  An image provides all information required for starting a cloud server. It is used to create a cloud server and deploy software environments in batches. A system disk image contains an OS and pre-installed application software for running services. A data disk image contains service data. A full-ECS image contains data of the system disk and data disks.

                  +

                  Usage method

                  +
                  • Data storage location: Unlike server or disk data, backups are stored in OBS. Deleting a disk will not clear its backups.
                  • Operation object: A server or disk can be backed up at a given point in time. CBR supports automatic backup and automatic deletion by configuring backup policies.
                  • Usage: Backups can be used to restore data to the original server or disk, or to create a new disk or full-ECS image.
                  • Support exporting to a local PC: No
                  +
                  • Data storage location: Unlike server or disk data, backups are stored in OBS. If a server or disk that is created using an image is deleted, the image will not be cleared.
                  • Operation object: The system disk and data disks of a server can be used to create private images. You can also create private images using external image files.
                  • Usage: System disk images or full-ECS images can be used to create new servers, and data disk images can be used to create new disks for service migration.
                  • Support exporting to a local PC: Yes However, full-ECS images cannot be exported to a local PC.

                  Application scenarios

                  +

                  CBR applies to the following scenarios:

                  +
                  • Data backup and restoration
                  • Rapid service deployment and migration
                  +

                  IMS applies to the following scenarios:

                  +
                  • Server migration to the cloud or between clouds
                  • Deploying a specific software environment
                  • Deploying software environments in batches
                  • Backing up server operating environments
                  +

                  Advantages

                  +

                  Supports automatic backup. Data on a server or disk at a certain time point can be retained periodically or quantitatively. You can back up on-premises VMware VMs, synchronize the backups to the cloud, and then use the backups to restore data to new ECSs.

                  +

                  Supports system disk backup. You can import the data disk image of a local server or a server provided by another cloud platform to IMS and then use the image to create an EVS disk.

                  +
                  +
                  +

                  Although backups and images are stored in OBS, you cannot view backup and image data in OBS, because they do not occupy your resources.

                  +
                  +
                  +

                  Relationship Between Backups and Images

                  1. You can use an ECS backup to create a full-ECS image.
                  2. Before creating a full-ECS image for an ECS, you need to back up the target ECS.
                  3. A backup is compressed when it is used to create an image, so the size of the generated image may be smaller than the backup size.

                  Full-ECS Image FAQs

                  +

                  What Is a Full-ECS Image?

                  A full-ECS image contains the OS, applications, and service data of an ECS. Generally, a full-ECS image is used to migrate all data of an ECS. For example:

                  +
                  • Sharing an ECS with other tenants
                  • Migrating data from an old ECS to a new one
                  +
                  +

                  Why Do I Have to Select a Vault When Creating a Full-ECS Image? Do I Need to Pay for the Vault?

                  When creating a full-ECS image from a CBR backup, you must select a vault. The vault is where your images and backups are stored. You need to pay for the vault.

                  +

                  When creating a full-ECS image from a CSBS backup, the vaults storing CSBS backups are not open to users but still need to be billed.

                  +

                  Therefore, no matter which backup type you select, you need to pay for the vault. Selecting a vault does not mean that you need to pay extra fees.

                  +
                  +

                  Where Can I View the Data Disk Information of a Successfully Created Full-ECS Image?

                  After a full-ECS image is created, only the system disk information (Disk Capacity) is displayed in the image list and image details. You can view the data disk information on the CSBS or CBR console, depending on where the full-ECS image is created from.

                  +

                  The following describes how to view the data disk details in CBR:

                  +
                  1. In the private image list, click the full-ECS image name.

                    Image details are displayed.

                    +
                  2. Locate Source and click the backup ID following it.

                    The CBR details page is displayed.

                  +
                  +

                  What Are the Restrictions on Using a Full-ECS Image?

                  • A full-ECS image cannot be exported. You are advised to create images for the system disk and data disks separately and then export the images.
                  • Only the full-ECS image created from a CBR backup is shareable with other tenants.
                  • A full-ECS image cannot be replicated within the same region.
