CoreWeave System Images

Operating System images provided by CoreWeave Cloud include enhancements and features to reduce friction when running Virtual Servers in the cloud.

This section documents how to use CoreWeave specific features, and operating system enhancements one should be aware of.

Identifying Images

Operating system source images provided by CoreWeave for Virtual Servers live in the vd-images namespace. There are several metadata properties that exist for easy identification:

Metadata Labels

  • images.coreweave.cloud/family
    • Identifies the OS type, usually Windows or Linux
  • images.coreweave.cloud/features
    • Identifies image specific features, such as Teradici enabled or nVidia drivers
  • images.coreweave.cloud/id
    • Image ID used during CI/CD
  • images.coreweave.cloud/latest
    • Boolean tag for the latest image revision
  • images.coreweave.cloud/name
    • Complete image name, as displayed in the Web UI
  • images.coreweave.cloud/os-name
    • Parent OS
  • images.coreweave.cloud/os-version
    • Subsection of OS, such as Standard or Professional Edition
  • images.coreweave.cloud/private
    • Boolean tag for testing images not intended to be used
  • images.coreweave.cloud/region
    • Datacenter region the image resides in
  • images.coreweave.cloud/version
    • Date tag for when the image was built

Querying Images using Metadata Labels

Using kubectl via CLI and the metadata labels listed above, individual images are easily queried.

Listing all latest images available for use

kubectl get pvc -n vd-images -l images.coreweave.cloud/latest=true,images.coreweave.cloud/private=false

Sorting all images by Region

kubectl get pvc -n vd-images -l images.coreweave.cloud/latest=true,images.coreweave.cloud/private=false --sort-by=.spec.storageClassName

Filtering by Windows Images

kubectl get pvc -n vd-images -l images.coreweave.cloud/latest=true,images.coreweave.cloud/private=false,images.coreweave.cloud/family=windows

Filtering by Windows 10

kubectl get pvc -n vd-images -l images.coreweave.cloud/latest=true,images.coreweave.cloud/private=false,images.coreweave.cloud/os-name=Windows_10

Extracting just the image name, filtering Windows 10 by Region

kubectl get pvc -n vd-images -l images.coreweave.cloud/latest=true,images.coreweave.cloud/private=false,images.coreweave.cloud/os-name=Windows_10,images.coreweave.cloud/region=ord1 -o jsonpath='{.items[*].metadata.name}'

Filtering by Linux Images

kubectl get pvc -n vd-images -l images.coreweave.cloud/latest=true,images.coreweave.cloud/private=false,images.coreweave.cloud/family=linux

Filtering by Ubuntu Images

kubectl get pvc -n vd-images -l images.coreweave.cloud/latest=true,images.coreweave.cloud/private=false,images.coreweave.cloud/os-name=Ubuntu

Filtering by Ubuntu 20.04

kubectl get pvc -n vd-images -l images.coreweave.cloud/latest=true,images.coreweave.cloud/private=false,images.coreweave.cloud/name=Ubuntu_20.04

Extracting just the image name, filtering Ubuntu 20.04 by Region

kubectl get pvc -n vd-images -l images.coreweave.cloud/latest=true,images.coreweave.cloud/private=false,images.coreweave.cloud/name=Ubuntu_20.04,images.coreweave.cloud/region=ord1 -o jsonpath='{.items[*].metadata.name}'

Listing all Linux Images and their features, filtering by Region

kubectl get pvc -n vd-images -l images.coreweave.cloud/latest=true,images.coreweave.cloud/private=false,images.coreweave.cloud/family=linux,images.coreweave.cloud/region=ord1 -o=custom-columns="PVC:metadata.name,NAME:metadata.labels['images\.coreweave\.cloud\/name'],FEATURES:metadata.labels['images\.coreweave\.cloud\/features'],SIZE:status.capacity.storage,STORAGECLASS:.spec.storageClassName" --sort-by='.metadata.name'
