Attaching ISO images to virtual machines

You can attach ISO images to running or stopped virtual machines, for example, to install additional software inside them or to restore their operating system in the rescue mode. To attach an ISO image, you need to convert it to a volume, and then attach this volume to a VM. When you finish installing software from an ISO volume, you can detach it without stopping the VM first. To create a volume from an ISO image On the Images screen, click the required ISO image. On the image right pane, click Create volume. In the Create volume from image window, specify a name for the volume, and then click Create. To attach an ISO volume to a virtual machine On the Virtual machines screen, click the required VM. On the Overview tab, click the pencil icon in the Volumes field. In the Volumes window, click Attach. In the Attach volume window, select the created volume, and then click Attach. The attached volume will be marked as ISO. In the Volumes window, click Done to save your changes. The attached volume will appear inside the VM operating system. To detach an ISO volume from a virtual machine On the Virtual machines screen, click the required VM. On the Overview tab, click the pencil icon in the Volumes field. In the Volumes window, click the ellipsis icon next to the ISO volume, and then click Force detach. Click Done to save your changes.
