    <p>
          When you create a new cloud VM, a <i>new</i>
          Oracle Cloud Infrastructure instance is created and associated with the cloud VM.
        </p>
    <p>
          Perform the following steps to create a new cloud VM:
        </p>
    <ol>
      <li>

              Click on a cloud profile in the
              <b outputclass="bold">OCI</b> group.
            </p>
        <p>
              The cloud VMs for the selected cloud profile are
              displayed.
            </p>
      </li>
      <li>
        <p>

        </fig>
      </li>
      <li>
        <p>
              On the initial page, configure the following settings for
              the new cloud VM:
            </p>
        <ul>
          <li>
            <p><b outputclass="bold">Location:</b> The cloud
                  service provider that will host the new instance.

            <p><b outputclass="bold">Source:</b> The image
                  that the new instance is based on. Choose from the

          </li>

        <p>
              You can use this page to change the default settings for
              the new Oracle Cloud Infrastructure instance, such as the display name, shape,
              and networking configuration.
            </p>
        <p>
              To add an SSH key to the instance, click the

              new Oracle Cloud Infrastructure instance using the selected image or boot
              volume. The new instance is started automatically.
