RegisterImage

GET /?Action=RegisterImage
Description

Registers an Outscale machine image (OMI) to finalize its creation process.
You can register an OMI from a snapshot of a root device to create an OMI based on this snapshot. You can also register an OMI that has been exported to an Object Storage Unit (OSU) bucket to create a copy of it in your account. For more information about OMI export to an OSU bucket, see CreateImageExportTask.
You can register an OMI using a pre-signed URL of the manifest file of the OMI. You do not need any permission for this OMI, or the bucket in which it is contained. The manifest file is obsolete seven days after a completed export as it contains pre-signed URLs to the appropriate snapshots (pre-signed URL are valid for only seven days).
Once the OMI is registered, you can launch an instance from this OMI. The copy of the source OMI is independent and belongs to you.
