You need to add the iso and start an instance from the ISO. The url you mention below points to an ISO not a VHD file.
Go into "templates", at the top left of the template window you will see a drop down menu. Click on "ISO". Then on top right corner you should see a "register ISO", click on that and fill in the information. After that go back to "instances", select ISO *not* "template" , pick the ISO you just registered (wait that the download is complete), and you should be able to get an instance. -sebastien On Apr 30, 2013, at 11:13 AM, Seif Eddine Jemli <seifeddineje...@gmail.com> wrote: > i couldn't create a template > > *Name: templateA > * > *Description: templateA > > * > *url: > http://mirrors.ukfast.co.uk/sites/ftp.centos.org/6.4/isos/x86_64/CentOS-6.4-x86_64-minimal.iso > > * > *zone: zoneB > * > *hypervisor: xenserver > * > *format : VHD > * > *os type: centos 6.0 64bits (the last version of centos that i found in the > list provided) > > * > *public > > * > *the error is: please specify a valid VHD > * > > > anything wrong? > > thx
