A CVM Custom Image Captured from an Instance into an Image Family

A Tencent Cloud custom image captured from a CVM instance into an image family, so instances that name the family get the newest image (no family by name). The capture refuses a running instance rather than powering it off, and takes the system disk only unless data disks are named.

This is the operations reference: version drift, dependants and neighbours. For what the module provisions, its inputs and outputs, and how to buy it, see the catalogue entry.

Provider drift

This artifact declares no Terraform provider requirements, so there is nothing to drift. Provider freshness applies to Terraform and OpenTofu modules.

What depends on this

No reference architecture names this module, so changing it affects only configurations that reference it directly.
