ams.amc publish

Publish an instance as an image

Synopsis

Publish an instance as an image.

This command creates an image from an existing instance. The instance must be stopped unless the –force flag is used to stop it automatically. The resulting image can be used to launch new instances.

If the –name flag is not provided, the image will only have an ID and can be referenced by that ID in subsequent commands.
