<title>Adding a Cloud VM</title>
<body>
<p>When you add a cloud VM, an <i>existing</i>
<ph conkeyref="vbox-conkeyref-phrases/oci"/> instance is associated with the cloud VM. You can only add one cloud
VM for each instance. </p>
<p>Perform the following steps to add a cloud VM: </p>
<ol>
<li>
<p>Click a cloud profile in the <b outputclass="bold">OCI</b> group. </p>
<p>The cloud VMs for the selected cloud profile are displayed. </p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Select <b outputclass="bold">Group</b>, <b outputclass="bold">Add Machine</b>. </p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Configure the following settings: </p>
<ul>
<li>
<p><b outputclass="bold">Source:</b> The cloud
service provider that hosts the instance used for the
cloud VM. Select
<b outputclass="bold"><ph conkeyref="vbox-conkeyref-phrases/oci"/></b>.
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p><b outputclass="bold">Profile:</b> The cloud
profile used to connect to the running instance.
Select from the available cloud profiles.
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p><b outputclass="bold">Instances:</b> The
instance to use for the cloud VM. Choose from the
available instances on your cloud service.
</p>
</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>
<p>Click <b outputclass="bold">Finish</b> to add a cloud VM based on the selected instance. </p>
<p>A cloud VM with the same name as the instance is added to the <b outputclass="bold">OCI</b> group in <ph
conkeyref="vbox-conkeyref-phrases/vbox-mgr"/>. </p>
</li>
<li>
<p>(Optional) To change the display name for the instance, click <b outputclass="bold">Settings</b> and edit the
<b outputclass="bold">Display Name</b> field. </p>
<p>The cloud VM name in <ph conkeyref="vbox-conkeyref-phrases/vbox-mgr"/> is updated automatically. </p>
