Hi
Sorry for the delayed reply.
As stated in ticket "WAT-6" the you will need to build a internal network before you build your local VM instance. If you do not your VM will enter an error state (note1) . A while back this caused us problems as we could not delete these VM from the command line.
I have tested this morning and VM creation works (note2)
My observations :
1/ The reason why WIT's is different than Lannion node is the fact we do not "share" the external network.
2/ We noticed a while back the spanish node assigns a public IP to "every" VM, and did not have the assign network tab on the "launch" VM wizard. ( an Essex feature? )
3/ We also noticed that if you create a VM as an admin user it does not matter if the external network is shared. ( AS in if you are an admin user the external network appears in the cloud portal launch wizard )
Regards,
Joe.

The public images work correctly. Are you referring at the blueprint images?
