109 <para>
110 Creates new image in the Cloud.
111 There are two standard ways to create an image in the Cloud:
112 1. Create an image from an object in the Cloud Storage;
113 2. Create an image from an existing cloud instance.
114 For the 1st approach next parameters are required:
115 bucket-name - cloud bucket name where an object is located;
116 object-name - name of object in the bucket;
117 display-name - name for new image in the Cloud.
118 For the 2d approach next parameters are required:
119 instance-id - Id of instance in the Cloud;
120 display-name - name for new image in the Cloud.

167 <para>
168 Import an image with a specified id from the Cloud to a local host.
169 The result is an object in the local "temp" folder on the local host.
170 Possible approach may have two general steps:
171 1. Create an object from an image in the Cloud Storage;
172 2. Download the object to the local host.
173 So the next parameters may be required:
174 bucket-name - cloud bucket name where the object will be created;
175 object-name - name of object in the bucket. if parameter "object-name" is absent a displayed image name is used.
176 If the first step isn't needed only the parameter "id" is required.

199 <para>
200 Export an existing VBox image with a specified uuid from a local host to the Cloud.
201 The result is new image in the Cloud.
202 Possible approach may have two general steps:
203 1. Upload VBox image to the Cloud Storage;
204 2. Create an image from the uploaded object.
205 So the next parameters may be required:
206 bucket-name -cloud bucket name where the object will be uploaded;
207 object-name - name of object in the bucket. If parameter "object-name" is absent the image id is used;
208 display-name - name for new image in the Cloud.
209 If the first step isn't needed the parameters "id" and "display-name" are required only.
