    [--output <json|xml>]

Options

This section describes the options available when running createServerImageFromSnapshot.

Required options

The following options are required for createServerImageFromSnapshot.

Options	Type	Required	Description
`--serverImageName`	String	Required	Server image name Enter 3-30 characters using a combination of English letters, numbers, and special character `-`. The string must start with a lowercase English letter and end with a lowercase English letter or a number.
`--blockStorageList`	List	Required	List of block storage devices for the server image For each storage, enter {field=‘value’} pairs within quotation marks, separated by commas. `order` (required): Storage order. `0`~`20`. One default storage (`order=0`) must be allocated, and up to 20 additional instances can be added (for a total of 21, including the default storage). `snapshotInstanceNo` (conditional): Storage snapshot instance number. Required when allocating additional storage to the default storage or an existing snapshot. Only snapshots where `isBootable` is `true` can be used. Either `snapshotInstanceNo` or `blockStorageVolumeTypeCode` is required. See getBlockStorageSnapshotInstanceList. `blockStorageSize` (conditional) Storage size (GB). Required when adding new storage. When using `snapshotInstanceNo`, set this to a value equal to or greater than the size of the existing snapshot. For storage-type-specific restrictions, see Storage specifications. `blockStorageVolumeTypeCode` (conditional): Storage type. `CB1` \| `CB2` \| `FB1` \| `FB2`. Required when adding new storage. The type can be changed when using an existing snapshot. `snapshotInstanceNo` or `blockStorageVolumeTypeCode` is required. Default storage can't be used. `emptyBlockStorage` (conditional) Whether to create new storage. `true` (Create) \| `false` (Not create, `snapshotInstanceNo` required). Default storage can't be used.

Optional options

These are the optional options for createServerImageFromSnapshot. Options that are not specified will use their default values.

Options	Type	Required	Description
`--serverImageDescription`	String	Optional	Server image description (byte) 0-1000
