Step 5: Export a VM from your virtualization environment in Amazon WorkSpaces

Note

If you are using Amazon EC2 Image Builder, you can proceed to Step 6: Import a VM as an image into Amazon EC2 in preparation to create a BYOL image for WorkSpaces.

After you confirm that your VM meets the Microsoft BYOL requirements by following the instructions in Step 4: Confirm that the Windows VM in Amazon WorkSpaces meets the requirements for Microsoft BYOL, you must export the VM from your virtualization environment. You will need this to create an image for BYOL that you can use in WorkSpaces.

The VM that you export must be on a single volume with a maximum size of 70 GB and at least 10 GB of free space. For more information, see the documentation for your virtualization environment and Export your VM from its virtualization environment in the VM Import/Export User Guide.
