=Uploading an Image=
The first step is to install the OpenStack client and download the OpenStack RC file and source it (see [[OpenStack Command Line Clients]]).
Then run the command
{{Command|openstack image create --file <path-to-local-file-image> --disk-format <format> <new-image-name>}}
where <path-to-local-file-image> is the path to the file containing the image you wish to upload from your local machine, <format> is the disk format if not specified the raw format is assumed, which is incorrect can cause issues when using the image in OpenStack, and <new-image-name> is the name of the image as it appears on the OpenStack dashboard.
