Hi,

i decided to use ISO. in which directory should i put the ISO so thatt i
can be detected by the cloudstack UI?

RE: instance creation
Posted by Oliver Leach <Ol...@tatacommunications.com>.
Getting there... Once the ISO has downloaded successfully, you need to deploy a VM using the ISO you uploaded. Follow these guide lines.
Add instance > select ISO bullet > click next > Click on either the Featured / Community or My ISOs tab > find your ISO > then continue with the add instance wizard.
If you still can't see your ISO, make sure you are logged in as the user who uploaded the ISO, or if not, make sure the ISO is public and / or featured. If it still doesn't appear, make sure the ISO download has completed successfully.
This should help
http://cloudstack.apache.org/docs/en-US/Apache_CloudStack/4.0.1-incubating/html/Admin_Guide/creating-vms.html
Just a note on your ISO image OS type. It is set to centos 6.0 64bits. If the VM fails to boot correctly, you can try Other Linux 64bit.

Yep
format : VHD
You say you are trying to upload an ISO but VHD suggest you are trying to upload a template. Go to templates in the left hand menu, change select view to ISO (drop down at the top), click on the register ISO from the top right, then follow the wizard again.
Hope that helps

Difficult to say. Are you sure you have entered the URL in correctly in the register ISO GUI? It needs to be http://my.web.server.iso. You need to be using the register ISO wizard to register the ISO.

So you need to have the ISO image on a web server. Then you can use the HTTP url of the iso image. If this is internal webserver, you will need to ensure the global setting secstorage.allowed.internal.sites is set to allow the internal webserver IP address (format of x.x.x.x/x). This webserver needs to be accessible by the SSVM - once you have set up the webserver (you can even run apache on the CS MGMT server), try to telnet to the webserver from the SSVM on port 80.
A much easier way would be to upload the ISO from a public external mirror, for example for centos 6.4 use http://mirrors.ukfast.co.uk/sites/ftp.centos.org/6.4/isos/x86_64/CentOS-6.4-x86_64-minimal.iso

You need to upload the ISO first in to CloudStack either as the root user or an account / domain user. Go to templates, change select view to ISO, then click on the register ISO from the top right. Either make sure you have changed the ISO to be featured or public is logged in the admin user, or you are using the same user that is uploading the ISO that will be creating the VM. Fill out the ISO properties, setting the OS type to the OS your bootable ISO image is using. This isn't actually the OS you are going to install as such but the preboot image you are booting in to before installing the OS image. Generally other Linux 64 bit.

As long as you CloudStack environment is working correctly, the ISO image should upload and once complete be visible to select when installing a VM. Let us know how you get on.
