(1) First, you select an existing virtual image and extend it.

(2) Since you do not need a provisioned virtual image, you can simply use one of the management virtual images.

(3) The virtual image size may also be larger or smaller than the display extent.

(4) The virtual image also contains virtual disk definition and virtual network connection units that represent the virtual resources that the hypervisor provides to the virtual system.

(5) Each virtual image is specified with a software stack object.

(6) If you already have a virtual image, you can plan the deployment of that image in a topology.

(7) Extension points for self-made virtual images to serve for specialized industry solution requirements that can be easily plugged into our framework's virtual image libraries.

(8) The specific software within each virtual image is represented by the software module name metadata.

(9) Generating a virtual machine configuration file for the virtual image.

(10) This created a new virtual image - with the dim light as the new gas.

(11) The next step in bringing up a virtual image is customizing its network identity, which is often one of the trickier areas of relocating virtual images.

(12) Upon deployment, the virtual image part becomes a virtual machine, and the script package associated with the virtual image part gets executed on that virtual machine.

(13) The virtual image is then positioned "under" the cell such that the cell's upper-left corner is positioned at the correct location in the virtual image.

(14) If you do not intend to share this virtual image with any other user on the network, then we recommend providing a path on your local drive for better performance.

(15) Drag the physical server unit into the virtual image unit to make the server a member of the virtual image.

(16) The concept is simple: avoid all installation and configuration hassles by using a virtual image of an entire software stack: operating system, application(s), configuration data, etc.

(17) This ensures that all virtual machines created as a result of deploying this pattern will be based on the custom virtual image you created earlier.

(18) The techniques presented here will help you save time by simplifying your virtual image deployment and activation.

(19) The install data for a bundle describes the tasks that should run when installing the bundle into a virtual image.

(20) Add a virtual disk definition unit and a virtual Ethernet connection unit to the virtual image.

(21) This includes editing virtual system settings and configuring each virtual machine as one of the parts available in the virtual image.

(22) These files represent the virtual disks that support the defined virtual image(s) or appliance.

(23) In the case of pattern creation through the user interface, you would drag and drop the script package onto the virtual image part.

(24) These patterns can then be dispensed by appliance users, and each virtual machine created as a result of deployment will be created from the customized virtual image.

(25) The Virtual Machine Configuration Manager is installed in the virtual image used as a VM template; it will configure the VM automatically after system start.

(26) However, these files do not contain enough information to model the operating system and other software hosted on the virtual image.

(27) Next, the appliance creates the virtual machines from the appropriate virtual image, and it injects unique IP addresses from a user-defined pool into each machine.
