| Summary | 0000124: Rocky-8-GenericCloud-8.6-20220515.x86_64.qcow2 import to AWS-CN AMI error | ||||
| Description | Hello, Rocky I am in Mainland China and using AWS-CN for cloud service. Since AWS-CN doesn't officially provide the Rocky 8 AMI, so I import it to my own account. with the general AWS import VM process(https://docs.aws.amazon.com/vm-import/latest/userguide/vmimport-image-import.html#upload-image), the IAM role was already promised. with aws-cli import, the AMI import process gets error: deleted ClientError: Unable to find an etc directory with fstab. I think it is the incomplete qcow2 image. I checked the checksum of the current 8.6 qcow2, the file itself is promised the same as current release. 77e79f487c70f6bfa5655d8084e02cb8d31900a2c2a22b2334c3401b40a1231c Rocky-8-GenericCloud-8.6-20220515.x86_64.qcow2 | ||||
| Steps To Reproduce | 1. # qemu-img info Rocky-8-GenericCloud-8.6-20220515.x86_64.qcow2 provides: file format: qcow2 virtual size: 3.3G (3492806656 bytes) disk size: 818M cluster_size: 65536 Format specific information: compat: 1.1 lazy refcounts: false refcount bits: 16 corrupt: false but similarly, for the Rocky-8.5.qcow2 # qemu-img info Rocky-8-GenericCloud-8.5-20211114.2.x86_64.qcow2 provides: image: Rocky-8-GenericCloud-8.5-20211114.2.x86_64.qcow2 file format: qcow2 virtual size: 10G (10737418240 bytes) disk size: 1.4G cluster_size: 65536 Format specific information: compat: 0.10 refcount bits: 16 2. change the qcow2 file to raw file qemu-img convert Rocky-8-GenericCloud-8.6-20220515.x86_64.qcow2 Rocky-8.6.raw 3. cp the raw file to S3 aws s3 cp Rocky-8.6.raw s3://your-bucket 4. write raw image import json file as Rocky-8.6.json. [ { "Description": "Rocky-8.6", "Format": "RAW", "Url": "s3://your-bucket/Rocky-8.6.raw" } ] 5. aws-cli import the raw file as AMI aws ec2 import-image --description "Rocky 8.6" --disk-containers "file://Rocky-8.6.json" you will get a import-ami-XXXXX code 6. check the AMI import status aws ec2 describe-import-image-tasks --import-task-ids import-ami-XXXX get an error deleted ClientError: Unable to find an etc directory with fstab. ---- The same process with the Rocky-8-GenericCloud-8.5-20211114.2.x86_64.qcow2, it passed successfully. | ||||

Hi There! Sorry for the delay in responding. The images are actually different from the GenericCloud images. I can upload them for you, but you should now be able to access them directly in this region, or clone it from another. The GenericCloud images are intended for use with something like an OpenStack cluster, or KVM via libvirt, e.g. Best, Neil |
