I just have a general question and I spent several hours trying to find information on this subject to no avail. I've exported VMs many times thinking it was all local exports no cloud. I recently noticed "export to OCI" option (which I have accidentally clicked before I am sure). I dont have an oracle account but I was confused as to whether this option auto uploads your VM to their cloud. I use VMs for all my banking and for work only so I am concerned about data leaks. Does anyone know anything about this? Thanks.
Ai response was this.
Convert the VM to VMDK format (if needed).
Upload the image to OCI Object Storage.
Import the uploaded image to create a custom image in OCI.
I use a vm to bank. It is not an installed image, just a once used boot.
