Virtual disk image testing

1. A method comprising:

uploading a virtual disk image, by a requestor, to a cloud;

deploying a temporary instance of the uploaded virtual disk image;

determining whether deployment of the temporary instance of the uploaded virtual disk image in the cloud is successful;

responsive to determining that the deployment of the temporary instance of the uploaded virtual disk image in the cloud is unsuccessful, flagging the uploaded virtual disk image as unbootable;

notifying the requestor that the uploaded virtual disk image is unbootable;

receiving, from the requestor, a command to cancel submission of the uploaded virtual disk image;

destroying the temporary instance of the uploaded virtual disk image; and

deleting the uploaded virtual disk image from the cloud.

2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

receiving, from the requestor, a command to continue with submission of the uploaded virtual disk image;

submitting the uploaded virtual disk image, flagged as unbootable, to the repository of the cloud; and

destroying the temporary instance of the uploaded virtual disk image.

3. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

receiving, from the requestor, a command to modify the uploaded virtual disk image prior to submission of the uploaded virtual disk image;

identifying at least one error associated with the temporary instance of the uploaded virtual disk image; and

providing, the requestor, access to the uploaded virtual disk image to modify the at least one error.

4. The method of claim 3 , further comprising:

booting the modified uploaded virtual disk image in a second temporary instance; and

determining whether creating the second temporary instance of the modified uploaded virtual disk image is successful.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the temporary instance of the virtual disk image is an instance deployed in the cloud with resources of the requestor to boot up the virtual disk image.

6. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

prompting the requestor to perform an action of a plurality of actions to determine whether to continue submission of the uploaded virtual disk image or cancel submission of the uploaded virtual disk.

7. The method of claim 6 , wherein the plurality of actions is one of:

cancel the submission of the uploaded virtual disk image, continue with submission of the uploaded virtual disk image, or modify the uploaded virtual disk image.

8. A system comprising:

a memory; and

a processing device coupled to the memory, to perform operations comprising:

uploading a virtual disk image, by a requestor, to a cloud;

deploying a temporary instance of the uploaded virtual disk image;

determining whether deployment of the temporary instance of the uploaded virtual disk image in the cloud is successful;

responsive to determining that the deployment of the temporary instance of the uploaded virtual disk image in the cloud is unsuccessful, flagging the uploaded virtual disk image as unbootable;

notifying the requestor that the uploaded virtual disk image is unbootable;

receiving, from the requestor, a command to continue with submission of the uploaded virtual disk image;

submitting the uploaded virtual disk image, flagged as unbootable, to the repository of the cloud; and

destroying the temporary instance of the uploaded virtual disk image.

9. The system of claim 8 , wherein the operations further comprises:

receiving, from the requestor, a command to cancel submission of the uploaded virtual disk image;

destroying the temporary instance of the uploaded virtual disk image; and

deleting the uploaded virtual disk image from the cloud.

10. The system of claim 8 , wherein the operations further comprises:

receiving, from the requestor, a command to modify the uploaded virtual disk image prior to submission of the uploaded virtual disk image;

identifying at least one error associated with the temporary instance of the uploaded virtual disk image; and

providing, the requestor, access to the uploaded virtual disk image to modify the at least one error.

11. The system of claim 10 , wherein the operations further comprises:

booting the modified uploaded virtual disk image in a second temporary instance; and

determining whether creating the second temporary instance of the modified uploaded virtual disk image is successful.

12. The system of claim 8 , wherein the temporary instance of the virtual disk image is an instance deployed in the cloud with resources of the requestor to boot up the virtual disk image.

13. The system of claim 8 , wherein the operations further comprises:

prompting the requestor to perform an action of a plurality of actions to determine whether to continue submission of the uploaded virtual disk image or cancel submission of the uploaded virtual disk.

14. The system of claim 13 , wherein the plurality of actions is one of: cancel the submission of the uploaded virtual disk image, continue with submission of the uploaded virtual disk image, or modify the uploaded virtual disk image.

15. A non-transitory machine-readable storage medium including instructions that, when accessed by a processing device, cause the processing device to:

receive, from a requestor, a request to upload a virtual disk image to a repository of a cloud provider;

obtain, from the requestor, the virtual disk image;

deploy an instance of the virtual disk image on a cloud of the cloud provider with resources of the requestor;

determine whether the instance of the virtual disk image in the cloud of the cloud provider was bootable;

responsive to determining that the instance of the virtual disk image in the cloud of the cloud provider was not bootable, flag the virtual disk image as unbootable; and

determine whether to process the request to upload the virtual disk image to the repository of the cloud provider based on an action of the requestor to perform one of: cancel the submission of the uploaded virtual disk image, continue with submission of the uploaded virtual disk image, or modify the uploaded virtual disk image.

16. The non-transitory machine-readable storage medium of claim 15 , wherein uploading the virtual disk image to the repository of the cloud provider includes making the virtual disk image accessible those other than the requestor.

17. The non-transitory machine-readable storage medium of claim 15 , wherein determining to process the request to upload the virtual disk image to the repository of the cloud provider includes destroying the instance of the virtual disk image in the cloud of the cloud provider.
