For :ref:`Cyclades <cyclades>` to be able to launch VMs from specified Images,


  		





  1171
  
  
    
you need the :ref:`snf-image <snf-image>` OS Definition installed on *all*


  		





  1172
  
  
    
VM-capable Ganeti nodes. This means we need :ref:`snf-image <snf-image>` on


  		





  
  1171
  
    
you need the :ref:


  		





  
  1172
  
    
`snf-image <http://www.synnefo.org/docs/snf-image/latest/index.html>` OS


  		





  
  1173
  
    
Definition installed on *all* VM-capable Ganeti nodes. This means we need


  		





  
  1174
  
    
:ref:`snf-image <http://www.synnefo.org/docs/snf-image/latest/index.html>` on


  		





  1173
  1175
  
    
node1 and node2. You can do this by running on *both* nodes:

Now that snf-image is installed successfully we need to provide it with some


  		





  1235
  
  
    
Images. :ref:`snf-image <snf-image>` supports Images stored in ``extdump``,


  		





  1236
  
  
    
``ntfsdump`` or ``diskdump`` format. We recommend the use of the ``diskdump``


  		





  1237
  
  
    
format. For more information about snf-image Image formats see `here


  		





  
  1237
  
    
Images.


  		





  
  1238
  
    
:ref:`snf-image <http://www.synnefo.org/docs/snf-image/latest/index.html>`


  		





  
  1239
  
    
supports Images stored in ``extdump``, ``ntfsdump`` or ``diskdump`` format. We


  		





  
  1240
  
    
recommend the use of the ``diskdump`` format. For more information about


  		





  
  1241
  
    
snf-image Image formats see `here


  		





  1238

  1243
  
    

  		





  1240
  
  
    
:ref:`snf-image <snf-image>` also supports three (3) different locations for the


  		





  1241
  
  
    
above Images to be stored:


  		





  
  1244
  
    
:ref:`snf-image <http://www.synnefo.org/docs/snf-image/latest/index.html>`


  		





  
  1245
  
    
also supports three (3) different locations for the above Images to be stored:


  		





  1242
  1246
  
    

  		





  1243
  1247
  
    
    * Under a local folder (usually an NFS mount, configurable as ``IMAGE_DIR``


  		





  1244
  1248
  
    
      in :file:`/etc/default/snf-image`)

^^^^^^^^^


  		





  5
  
  
    

  		





  6
  
  
    
:ref:`snf-image <snf-image>` is the secure image deployment tool used by the


  		





  7
  
  
    
synnefo's Compute Service, :ref:`cyclades <cyclades>`.


  		





  8
  
  
    

  		





  9
  
  
    
Currently, it is implemented as an OS definition for


  		





  10
  
  
    
`Ganeti <http://code.google.com/p/ganeti>`_.


  		





  11
  
  
    

  		





  12
  
  
    
Furthermore :ref:`snf-image <snf-image>` acts as a standalone add-on for Ganeti


  		





  13
  
  
    
and can be used with it independently. Someone who uses Ganeti, (and has


  		





  14
  
  
    
nothing to do with Synnefo) can use snf-image to serurely deploy many kind of


  		





  15
  
  
    
images with Ganeti.

Please refer to the

`snf-image documentation <http://www.synnefo.org/docs/snf-image/latest/index.html>`_ for


  		





  19
  
  
    
all details concerning installation and configuration.
