Interacting with the OpenNebula Marketplace

The OpenNebula Marketplace is a catalog of third party virtual appliances ready to run in OpenNebula environments. The OpenNebula Marketplace only contains appliances metadata. The images and files required by an appliance will not be stored in the Marketplace, but links to them. {{ documentation:rel3.6:market1306.png?600 |}} {{INLINETOC}} ====== Using Sunstone to Interact with the OpenNebula Marketplace ====== Since the release 3.6, Sunstone includes a new tab that allows OpenNebula users to interact with the OpenNebula Marketplace: {{ :documentation:rel4.0:sunstone_marketplace_list-1.png?direct&700 |}} If you want to import a new appliance into your local infrastructure, you just have to select an image and click the button ''import''.
