from-object

Description

For more information about importing exported images, see Image Import/Export <https://docs.cloud.oracle.com/iaas/Content/Compute/Tasks/imageimportexport.htm>.

You may optionally specify a display name for the image, which is simply a friendly name or description. It does not have to be unique, and you can change it. See UpdateImage <https://docs.cloud.oracle.com/en-us/iaas/tools/oci-cli/latest/oci_cli_docs/cmdref/compute/image/update.html>. Avoid entering confidential information.

Usage

oci compute image import from-object [OPTIONS]

Required Parameters

The name of the bucket to import the image from.

The OCID of the compartment you want the image to be created in.

The name of the object identifying the image to import.

The Object Storage Service namespace to import the image from.

Optional Parameters

Defined tags for this resource. Each key is predefined and scoped to a namespace. For more information, see Resource Tags <https://docs.cloud.oracle.com/iaas/Content/General/Concepts/resourcetags.htm>.

Example:

{"Operations": {"CostCenter": "42"}}

This is a complex type whose value must be valid JSON. The value can be provided as a string on the command line or passed in as a file using the file://path/to/file syntax.

The --generate-param-json-input option can be used to generate an example of the JSON which must be provided. We recommend storing this example in a file, modifying it as needed and then passing it back in via the file:// syntax.

A user-friendly name for the image. It does not have to be unique, and it’s changeable. Avoid entering confidential information.

You cannot use a platform image name as a custom image name.

Example:

My Oracle Linux image

Free-form tags for this resource. Each tag is a simple key-value pair with no predefined name, type, or namespace. For more information, see Resource Tags <https://docs.cloud.oracle.com/iaas/Content/General/Concepts/resourcetags.htm>.

Example:

{"Department": "Finance"}

This is a complex type whose value must be valid JSON. The value can be provided as a string on the command line or passed in as a file using the file://path/to/file syntax.

The --generate-param-json-input option can be used to generate an example of the JSON which must be provided. We recommend storing this example in a file, modifying it as needed and then passing it back in via the file:// syntax.

Provide input to this command as a JSON document from a file using the file://path-to/file syntax.

The --generate-full-command-json-input option can be used to generate a sample json file to be used with this command option. The key names are pre-populated and match the command option names (converted to camelCase format, e.g. compartment-id –> compartmentId), while the values of the keys need to be populated by the user before using the sample file as an input to this command. For any command option that accepts multiple values, the value of the key can be a JSON array.

Options can still be provided on the command line. If an option exists in both the JSON document and the command line then the command line specified value will be used.

For examples on usage of this option, please see our “using CLI with advanced JSON options” link: https://docs.cloud.oracle.com/iaas/Content/API/SDKDocs/cliusing.htm#AdvancedJSONOptions

Specifies the configuration mode for launching virtual machine (VM) instances. The configuration modes are: * NATIVE - VM instances launch with paravirtualized boot and VFIO devices. The default value for platform images. * EMULATED - VM instances launch with emulated devices, such as the E1000 network driver and emulated SCSI disk controller. * PARAVIRTUALIZED - VM instances launch with paravirtualized devices using VirtIO drivers. * CUSTOM - VM instances launch with custom configuration settings specified in the LaunchOptions parameter.

Accepted values are:

CUSTOM, EMULATED, NATIVE, PARAVIRTUALIZED
