[Give Google Cloud access to the images](#enable-access) in your Red Hat Cloud Access subscription.\n2. [Use Google Cloud console or Google Cloud CLI](#create-vm) to create the VM.\n\n### Give your Google Group access to your RHEL subscription\n\nTo provide your Google Group with access to RHEL BYOS images, complete the\nfollowing steps:\n\n1. Select an existing or create a [Google Group](https://support.google.com/groups/answer/2464926).\n2. Add all users and service accounts that you want to use these BYOS images, to the Google Group. See [Add people to your group](https://support.google.com/groups/answer/2465464?ref_topic=2458761).\n3. Log into the [Red Hat Customer Portal](https://access.redhat.com/) and complete the following steps:\n 1. On the navigation menu, select **Cloud Access**.\n 2. Click **Enable a new provider**.\n 3. In the **Select a Red Hat Certified Cloud and Service Provider** menu, select **Google Compute Engine**.\n 4. Enter your **Google Compute Engine ID** . This is the [email address](https://support.google.com/groups/answer/2464926#zippy=%2Csettings-reference) for the Google Group that you created in step one.\n 5. Select the products that you want to enable.\n 6. Click **Enable**.\n\nIt might take 3-4 hours for your Google Cloud account to be\nlinked to the Red Hat Customer Portal.\n\n### Understanding RHEL BYOS projects\n\n`rhel-byos-cloud` is a public Google Cloud project that contains a list of all\navailable RHEL BYOS images. You can reference this project to find the correct\nimage name or family that you will then use to create your own VM instance in\nyour project. The images are managed by Google Cloud, but they can\nonly be used if you have properly enabled your RHEL BYOS subscription.\n\n### Create the VM\n\nAfter you give your Google Group access to your RHEL subscription, your\nRHEL BYOS images are available in the public Google Cloud `rhel-byos-cloud` project\non Compute Engine, but you will create your own VM in your own project. \n\n### Console\n\nThe Google Cloud console simplifies this process by automatically presenting the\navailable RHEL BYOS images from the `rhel-byos-cloud` project.\n\n1. In the Google Cloud console, go to the **Create an instance** page.\n\n [Go to Create an instance](https://console.cloud.google.com/compute/instancesAdd)\n2. Specify a **Name** for your VM. For more information, see [Resource naming convention](/compute/docs/naming-resources#resource-name-format).\n\n3. Optional: Change the **Zone** for this VM. If you select **Any**,\n Google automatically chooses a zone for you based on machine type\n and availability.\n\n4. Select a **Machine configuration** for your VM.\n\n5. In the **Boot disk** section, click **Change**.\n\n6. In the **Public images** tab, complete the following steps:\n\n 1. In the **Operating system** drop-down, select one of the following:\n - **Red Hat Enterprise Linux**\n - **Red Hat Enterprise Linux for SAP**\n 2. In the **Version Type** drop-down, select the image that you want to use.\n 3. In the **License type** section, select **Bring your own subscription or license (BYOS/BYOL)**.\n 4. Specify boot disk type.\n 5. Specify boot disk size.\n 6. Optional: For advanced configuration options, click **Show advanced configuration**.\n 7. To confirm your boot disk options, click **Select**.\n7. Make additional VM customizations, as needed.\n\n8. To create and start the VM, click **Create**.\n\n### gcloud\n\nCreating a VM with the Google Cloud CLI is a two-step process to make sure\nyou use the correct image from the `rhel-byos-cloud` project.\n\n1. To find the RHEL BYOS image you want to use. Run the following command to list the available images in the `rhel-byos-cloud` project:\n\n ```\n gcloud compute images list \\\n --project=rhel-byos-cloud \\\n --filter=\"name ~ rhel-byos\"\n ```\n\n From the command output, note the `name` of the image you want to use. For example, the name might be `rhel-9-byos` or `rhel-9-2-sap-byos`.\n2. Create the VM with a BYOS image in your own project by referencing the image you found in the previous step by running the [`gcloud compute instances create` command](/sdk/gcloud/reference/compute/instances/create)\n with your \u003cvar translate=\"no\"\u003ePROJECT_ID\u003c/var\u003e and \u003cvar translate=\"no\"\u003eIMAGE_NAME\u003c/var\u003e.\n\n ```\n gcloud compute instances create VM_NAME \\\n --project=PROJECT_ID \\\n --image=IMAGE_NAME\n ```\n\n Replace the following:\n - \u003cvar translate=\"no\"\u003eVM_NAME\u003c/var\u003e: [name](/compute/docs/naming-resources#resource-name-format) of the new VM\n - \u003cvar translate=\"no\"\u003ePROJECT_ID\u003c/var\u003e: your project ID where you want to create the VM\n - \u003cvar translate=\"no\"\u003eIMAGE_NAME\u003c/var\u003e: the specific image name that you want to use\n\nWhat's next\n-----------\n\n- [Connect to Linux VMs](/compute/docs/instances/connecting-to-instance).\n- [Connect to Windows VMs](/compute/docs/instances/connecting-to-windows).\n- [Access Red Hat Knowlegebase](/compute/docs/images/premium/access-rhel-knowledgebase)."]]
