hi all,

i am new with the GCP.

Is there a way if i want to create compute engine and using the Oracle Linux 7 as the operating system? i couldn’t find Oracle Linux 7 as an option in the selection box.

Please advise.

Yes, it is possible, but you will need to Create a custom image first, and then you can use that image in any of your VMs. Be aware of the requirements when building custom images.
