Create New System
This page allows you to create a new virtual system running on Google's GCE service. Unlike the other virtual system types supported by Cloudmin, it is not created on a host system owned by you or from one of the locally stored images - instead, it is created from an image provided by Google or yourself.

The fields on this form that need to be filled in to create a GCE instance are :

Internet hostname
The hostname that will be used by this instance, like mymachine.
System description
A short human-readable description for this new virtual system, like Webserver on GCE.
SSH key for root
New GCE instances are always only accessible via an SSH key, rather than with a password.
Allow creation of Virtualmin domains?
This setting determines if the newly create system can have Virtualmin domains added to it. Typically you will want to leave this set to Yes.
Update Virtualmin packages?
When this is set to Yes (as it is by default) and you are creating a system from an AMI that includes Virtualmin Pro, all packages used by Virtualmin will be updated to the latest available versions after creation is complete.
GCE project
If you have multiple GCE projects registered with Cloudmin, you must select the one that will own this new instance from this menu.
GCE system image
This menu lists all of the GCE images that you have created, and public Linux images provided by Google.
GCE instance size
The size of an instance determines how much RAM, CPU and local disk it has available. Larger instances cost more per hour to run.
When the Create button is clicked, Cloudmin will call the GCE API to start the creation process. Depending on the size of the image, this can take between 1 and 5 minutes. The hostname of the newly created system will be just the IP assigned by Google, but can be changed later once you have added an entry for the same IP address to your own DNS domain.
