## Upload OSDCloud ISO

You can now select your public Storage Container and upload a WinPE ISO.  Make sure this does not contain any Autopilot Configuration files

Select Upload and then browse to your ISO.  You will need to select Overwrite since we have not added any Access Control yet, and use the Account key option for the upload
