Changing an ECS OS (Using an Image with Cloud-Init Installed)
Function
This API is used to change an ECS OS. During the system disk reinstallation using a new image, the data disks of the ECS remain unchanged.
After this API is called, the system uninstalls the system disk, uses the new image to create a system disk, and attaches it to the ECS. In this way, the OS is changed.
Constraints
- You can only use an image with Cloud-Init or Cloudbase-Init installed.
- Only a stopped ECS or an ECS on which reinstalling or changing the OS failed supports changing OS.
- Only an ECS with a system disk supports changing OS.
- You are not allowed to perform other operations when changing the OS. Otherwise, changing the OS will fail.
