# Creating (load or import) an OS image
# Creating an OS profile based on an OS image
# Provisioning an OS on systems based on the OS profile and its associated OS image
The first two steps are one-time tasks for each OS configuration that you want to provision. Check the [xvmOC1dot1:System Requirements] page for the list of OSs that you can provision with Sun xVM Ops Center.
h4. Image File Default Location
When importing image files, a default location is predefined. The default location is:
{{/var/opt/SUNWscn/images}}
{{/var/opt/SUNWscn/proxyImageCache}}
This default location is defined by the satellite and proxy properties files:
{{satellite.properties}}
{{proxy.properties}}
The satellite and proxy properties files are located in the following directory:
{{/etc/opt/sun/n1gc}}
h4. To Change the Default Location for FW and OS Image Files
To change the default location for the Operating System and Firmware image files, do the following:
# Edit the satellite and proxy properties files in the {{/etc/opt/sun/n1gc}} directory.
{{/etc/opt/sun/n1gc/satellite.properties}}
{{/etc/opt/sun/n1gc/proxy.properties}}
# Change the default directory in the satellite and proxy configuration files:
{{id.satellite_base_dir= /var/opt/SUNWscn/images}}
{{id.proxy_base_dir= /var/opt/SUNWscn/proxyImageCache}}
*Note*: The {{id.satellite_base_dir}} value must be changed in both the satellite and proxy properties files.
# Depending on whether you are pointing to a new satellite or to proxy directories, manually move/copy the entire directory structure (one or both) to the new directory. This includes any previously imported image files.
# Restart the satellite and proxy instances.
Note: If the default directory for importing image files is changed, both FW and OS image files are affected.
