Provider images

Last updated
are Operating Systems images (RHEL, Windows, Debian...) available at provider end.
This menu allows a YaK administrator to define a list of OS that can be installed with the YaK.
Only images made available in this section will be used for future server deployments.
The provider images menu allows you to declare the operating system(s) that you want to be able to use when installing a server with the YaK.
License costs may apply based on the image selected. Make sure to carefully select the images that best meet your needs and budget.
YaK already comes with a predefined list of provider images, it's up to the user to add more images.
To do so:
Navigate to Configuration -> Provider images in the menu
Select the cloud provider you want to declare a new image to, by selecting the appropriate tab
Click "Declare"
Fill-out the form with the requested information
The image definition must exist at your cloud provider and the image details are to be retrieved from your cloud provider.
Note: Please note that images are specific to a region at some cloud providers (ex: AWS and OCI). This is not related to the YaK, but is a cloud provider's limitation.
An image declared with region "eu-central-1" for example, will be available to infrastructures that belong to the same region only.
If the same image needs to be used on 2 different regions, it must be declared twice (once for each region)
