O gerenciamento de máquina virtual (VMs) isoladas do Google Distributed Cloud (GDC) permite provisionar e implantar
VMs e gerenciar cada uma delas durante o ciclo de vida.
O VM Manager tem as seguintes áreas:
Ciclo de vida da VM:
provisione e gerencie VMs de formato e tamanho arbitrários usando
comandos kubectl, a API, a CLI do Distributed Cloud ou o console do GDC.
Gerenciamento de imagens:
use uma imagem do sistema operacional (SO) fornecida pelo Distributed Cloud ou
uma imagem personalizada do SO. É possível criar imagens personalizadas do SO com base em uma imagem fornecida ou na sua própria imagem.
Agente do SO convidado:
gerencie o acesso e a capacidade de observação da VM. Forneça pacotes da ferramenta avançada de pacotes (APT)
com as dependências deles para suas VMs.
Rede:
integre-se à rede do Distributed Cloud para manter endereços IP
de entrada e saída estáveis.
Armazenamento:
acesso a discos de inicialização ou secundários duráveis, snapshots de disco e backups de máquinas
por meio de integração estreita com o armazenamento.
Recuperação de desastres:
use snapshots no nível do disco e backups completos de VMs para recuperação de desastres.
Conjuntos de instruções de VM
As instruções neste conjunto de documentação são apresentadas para a CLI kubectl, o
console do GDC, a CLI gdcloud ou a API, conforme aplicável. Em
casos em que apenas kubectl ou o console do GDC estão disponíveis, o
conjunto de instruções reflete esse status. Por exemplo, se um recurso for compatível apenas com
dois dos três conjuntos de instruções, você verá apenas esses dois conjuntos.

You can build custom OS images from a provided OS image, or from your own image.\n- [**Guest OS agent**](/distributed-cloud/hosted/docs/latest/gdch/application/ao-user/vms/manage-the-os/guest-environment): Manage your VM access and observability. Serve advanced package tool (APT) packages, with their dependencies, to your VMs.\n- [**Networking**](/distributed-cloud/hosted/docs/latest/gdch/application/ao-user/vms/connect-to-vm/connect-to-a-vm): Integrate with Distributed Cloud networking to maintain stable ingress and egress IP addresses.\n- [**Storage**](/distributed-cloud/hosted/docs/latest/gdch/application/ao-user/vms/manage-storage/add-a-vm-disk): Access durable boot or secondary disks, disk snapshots, and machine backups through tight integration with storage.\n- [**Disaster recovery**](/distributed-cloud/hosted/docs/latest/gdch/application/ao-user/vms/backup-and-restore/restore-from-backup/create-vm-from-backup): Use disk-level snapshots and complete VM backups for disaster recovery.\n\nVM instruction sets\n-------------------\n\nInstructions in this documentation set are presented for the `kubectl` CLI, the\nGDC console, the gdcloud CLI, or the API, as applicable. In\ncases where only `kubectl` or the GDC console is available, the\ninstruction set reflects that status. For example, if a feature supports only\ntwo of the three instruction sets, you see only those two sets of instructions.\n\nUse these instructions after you [download and install gdcloud CLI](/distributed-cloud/hosted/docs/latest/gdch/resources/gdcloud-download)\non your computer and have completed any open tasks listed on the\n[Preparation](/distributed-cloud/hosted/docs/latest/gdch/application/ao-user/vms/preparation) page.\n\nWhat's next\n-----------\n\nTo get started, go to the\n[Create and start a VM instance](/distributed-cloud/hosted/docs/latest/gdch/application/ao-user/vms/create-a-vm/create-and-start)\npage."]]
