OCI Create Custom Image from Instance

with Oracle · IT Infrastructure Management

Capture a custom image from a stopped instance and wait for it to provision.

  1. Read the source instance and confirm it is in the STOPPED state, which is required before an image can be captured from it.
  2. Create a boot disk image from the stopped instance in the target compartment with the supplied display name.
  3. Read the new image and check its lifecycle state. Repeat this step until the image leaves PROVISIONING and reports AVAILABLE.
What you'll need to have ready
  • compartmentId: The OCID of the compartment to create the image in.
  • instanceId: The OCID of the stopped instance to capture.
  • displayName: A user-friendly name for the new custom image.
  • authToken: OCI request-signing bearer credential for the Authorization header.
