You can add your own image and deploy a server based on it. To do this, you must first upload your image file to the Yandex Object Storage bucket.

Upload an image file to Object Storage

Upload your image to Object Storage and get a link to the uploaded image:

If you do not have a bucket in Object Storage, create one with restricted access.
Upload the image using the management console, the AWS CLI, or WinSCP, for example. In Object Storage terms, the uploaded image is called an object.
Get a link to the uploaded image. Use this link when creating an image in BareMetal.

Create a new image from the link obtained in Object Storage:

Management console

In the management console, select the folder where you want to create a network.
In the list of services, select BareMetal.
In the left-hand panel, select Boot images.
Click Upload image.
Enter the image name. The naming requirements are as follows:
- It must be 2 to 63 characters long.
- It may contain lowercase Latin letters, numbers, and hyphens.
- It must start with a letter and cannot end with a hyphen.
(Optional) Add a description for your image.
Paste the link to the image you got in Object Storage.
Click Upload.

After creating your image, you can delete the image file from Object Storage. You can also delete the bucket if it does not contain any more objects.
