[Microstack] Add Image

Add images to openstack with example of Ubuntu 22.04

wget http://cloud-images.ubuntu.com/releases/22.04/release/ubuntu-22.04-server-cloudimg-amd64.img

We need cloud images, not the ones that we normally install with USB stick. For my case, I will be using 22.04 for demo.

microstack.openstack image create "ubuntu2204" --file ubuntu-22.04-server-cloudimg-amd64.img --disk-format qcow2 --container-format bare --public

This will add Ubuntu 22.04 image to the openstack.

If you happen to encounter

[Error 13] Permission denied file ubuntu-22.04-server-cloudimg-amd64.img

As an error, move the .img file to the directory /var/snap/microstack/common/images. Then execute the same command again.
