Can I share the cloud server image shared to me with others?

Yes, you can share a cloud server image that was shared with you with others, depending on the cloud platform's permissions and features.

For example, if the image was shared with you via a private image sharing mechanism, you can typically redistribute it to other accounts or users within the same platform. This is useful for teams or organizations that need consistent environments across multiple instances.

On Tencent Cloud, you can use Custom Images and share them with other Tencent Cloud accounts. The owner of the image can grant access to specific accounts, allowing them to use the image to create their own instances. To share an image, you can go to the CVM (Cloud Virtual Machine) console, navigate to Images, select the custom image, and configure the sharing settings to add the target account IDs.

This feature is helpful for enterprises that want to standardize deployments or collaborate on infrastructure setups.
