Share an Image

This article describes how to share your custom images to other Ping An Cloud users.

Prerequisites

Please clean sensitive data and files of your custom image before sharing your image.

Usage Guidelines

1.     One image can be shared to a maximum of 20 tenants.

2.     An account can only share images for 200 times in one day.

3.     A shared image does not occupy the image quota of the sharer, but occupies the quota of the person you share to.

4.     If the person uses your shared image to create ECS instances, not you but that person will be charged.

5.     You can only share your own custom images. The images shared to you cannot be shared again.
