Add a Ubuntu image to Glance¶

If you don’t already have a Ubuntu image in your OpenStack environment, you’ll need to add one to Glance before you can use the template.

1. Copy the download URL for the Ubuntu Cloud server image of your choice. We used trusty-server-cloudimg-amd64-disk1.img.

2. Add the image to Glance:

   • In Horizon, go to Compute –> Images.
   • Click Create Image and paste the image URL in the Image Location field.
   • Enter the requested information, including the minimum requirements for your image (we used 7GB disk and 520MB RAM).
   • Click Create to add the image to Glance.
