Templates and Flavors
Image templates are the OS disk images available to build KVM instances from. The Templates page has a Local tab for images already downloaded onto the cluster, and one tab per configured image repository — including the built-in Hosted.ai catalog — for images available to download. Flavors are named compute-sizing presets (vCPU count, memory, and disk sizes) that you select when provisioning or resizing an instance in the Cluster Panel.
Flavors are conceptually similar to the User Panel's Instance Types (also a vCPU/RAM/disk shape), but they're a separate, Cluster Panel-level primitive — Flavors size KVM instances directly at the cluster, rather than through the User Panel's instance-deployment flow.
For specific tasks, see Create Flavor under this section.
Draft — needs screenshots. This section hasn't been through the docs-capture pipeline yet, so there are no screenshots. Steps are grounded in the current product code (routes and page components), not a live capture — verify against the running product once this section is captured.
Browsing image templates
The Templates page opens on the Local tab and shows stat cards for images that are Enabled, Disabled, or Downloading, plus datastore space used and free (where available). The table lists each image's name (with an OS icon and a popover showing filename, disk format, and cloud-init support), location, status, provider, distribution, version, architecture, type, disk format, installation date, and size, and can be filtered with the search box. Depending on an image's current state, its row action menu offers Enable, Disable, Rename, Delete, or Download.
Additional tabs — Hosted.ai and any other configured template repository — show that repository's catalog of images available to download, with a Refresh button to pull the latest list from the repository. To add a new template repository, see Administration → Template Repositories.
Browsing flavors
The Flavors page shows a total count and a table of existing flavors — name, cores, memory, root storage, and up to two extra disks — searchable by name. A flavor currently in use by an instance can't be destroyed.
