8.6.2. Uploading a virtual machine image by using the CLI

Procedure

1. Upload the image by running the virtctl image-upload command:

   $ virtctl image-upload dv <datavolume_name> \
     --size=<datavolume_size> \
     --image-path=</path/to/image>

   <datavolume_name>

   The name of the data volume.

   <datavolume_size>

   The size of the data volume. For example: --size=500Mi, --size=1G

   </path/to/image>

   The file path of the image.

   참고

   • If you do not want to create a new data volume, omit the --size parameter and include the --no-create flag.
   • When uploading a disk image to a PVC, the PVC size must be larger than the size of the uncompressed virtual disk.
   • To allow insecure server connections when using HTTPS, use the --insecure parameter. When you use the --insecure flag, the authenticity of the upload endpoint is not verified.

2. Optional. To verify that a data volume was created, view all data volumes by running the following command:

   $ oc get dvs
