Import VHD file to Google Compute Engine


Is there a way to create a VM instance on Google Cloud using a VHD? It looks pretty straight forward and well documented on the Azure cloud but there is no information I can find on G-Cloud.

Seems like I'm wasting my time recreating my servers on the Google Cloud and I'm quickly losing site of the value of the Google Cloud.

  • You can bring your own image to GCE. You can follow the instruction on the public documentation on GCE. There's also this video that explains the process.
