This section explains how to register a cloning image to a resource pool.
When an image (template) has been created in advance using VM management software, register it to the image pool using the following procedure:
In the ROR console orchestration tree, right-click the target image pool, and select [Register Resources] from the popup menu.
The [Register Resources] dialog is displayed.
Select a cloning image to register.
Click <OK>.
The cloning image is registered.
Note
For images (templates) created in advance using VM management software, change the name of a template as follows to enable Resource Orchestrator to process it:
Delete any characters other than alphanumeric characters and underscores ("_").
Ensure an alphabetic character is used for the first character.
When using an image created beforehand (template), configure the system disk for template using the following settings:
[VMware]
SCSI:0:0
[Hyper-V]
IDE:0:0
[Oracle VM]
For PVM (Para-Virtualized Machine)
xvda
For HVM (Hardware Virtualized Machine)
hda
When using something other than the above for the system disk, the L-Server creation process that accompanies cloning image deployment may fail.
