It should return a string. If you do not see anything, please [[http://support.ifca.es|open an incidence]]. == Create a machine == To create a machine you have to perform several steps: * Decide which of the pre-built images you are going to use. * Decide which with of the available sizes is suitable for you. * Decide (and create if not ready) with keypair should be used to connect to the machine. === Image and size selection === ==== Image selection ==== There are several pre-built images available. To check them, use the `euca-describe-images` command: {{{ $ euca-describe-images IMAGE ami-00000008 None (cloudpipe) available public machine instance-store IMAGE ami-00000007 None (Debian Wheezy (2011-08)) available public machine instance-store IMAGE ami-00000006 None (lucid-server-uec-amd64.img) available public machine instance-store IMAGE ami-00000003 None (Scientific Linux 5.5) available public machine instance-store IMAGE ami-00000001 None (Scientific Linux 5.5) available public machine instance-store }}} Once you have decided with image to use, write down its identifier (ami-XXXXXXXX). ==== Instance types ==== You can choose the size of your machine (i.e. how many CPUs and how much memory) from the following instance types: ===== Standard machines ===== || '''Name''' || '''Memory''' || '''# CPU''' || '''Local storage''' || '''Swap''' || || m1.tiny || 512MB || 1 || 0GB || 0GB|| || m1.small || 2048MB || 1 || 20GB || 0GB|| || m1.medium || 4096MB || 2 || 40GB || 0GB|| || m1.large || 8192MB || 4 || 80GB || 0GB|| || m1.xlarge || 16384MB || 8 || 160GB || 0GB|| ===== High-memory machines ===== || '''Name''' || '''Memory''' || '''# CPU''' || '''Local storage''' || '''Swap''' || || m2.8g || 8192MG || 1 || 10GB || 0GB|| === Create SSH credentials === For most of the users this is a one-time step (although you can create as much SSH credentials as you want). You have to create an SSH-keypair so as to inject it to the newly created machine with the following command (it will create a keypair named `cloudkey` and store it under `~/.cloud/cloudkey.pem`): {{{ $ euca-add-keypair cloudkey > ~/.cloud/cloudkey.pem }}} Make sure that you keep safe the file `~/.cloud/cloudkey.pem`, since it will contain the private key needed to access your cloud machines. You can check the name later with the `euca-describe-keypairs` command. === Launching the instance === To launch the instance, you have to issue `euca-run-instances`, specifying: * wich keypair to use (in the example `cloudkey`). * wich size should be used (in the example `m1.tiny`). * with image should be used (in the example `ami-00000001`). {{{ $ euca-run-instances -k cloudkey -t m1.tiny ami-00000001 RESERVATION r-1zdwog0m ACES default INSTANCE i-00000048 ami-00000001 scheduling cloudkey (ACES, None) 2011-09-02T12:19:41Z None None }}} You can check its status with `euca-describe-instances` {{{ $ euca-describe-instances i-00000048 RESERVATION r-vmfu1xq2 ACES default INSTANCE i-00000048 ami-00000001 172.16.1.8 172.16.1.8 blocked cloudkey (ACES, cloud01) 0 m1.tiny 2011-09-02T12:15:32Z nova }}} === Connect to the server === === Authorize SSH connections and ping === If you decide not to use a VPN, but connect to your machines trough the GRIDUI cluster, you have to authorize such connections with: {{{ $ euca-authorize -P tcp -p 22 default $ euca-authorize -P icmp -t -1:-1 default }}} ==== SSH Connection ==== You have to use the private identify file that you created before (`~/.cloud/cloudkey.pem`) and pass it to the SSH client. To check the IP to with you should connect, check it with `euca-describe-instances` {{{ $ ssh -i ~/.cloud/cloudkey.pem root@172.16.1.8 }}} === Stopping the server === Images can be stopped with `euca-terminate-instances` {{{ $ euca-terminate-instances i-00000048 }}} == Using Cloud Storage == === Creating a Volume === {{{ $ euca-create-volume -s 100 -z nova }}} === Using a Volume in an image === {{{ $ euca-attach-volume -i i-00000001 -d /dev/xvdc vol-00000001 }}} {{{ server-1 $ sudo fdisk -l | grep Disk Disk /dev/xvda doesn't contain a valid partition table Disk /dev/xvdb doesn't contain a valid partition table Disk /dev/xvdc doesn't contain a valid partition table Disk /dev/xvda: 10.7 GB, 10737418240 bytes Disk identifier: 0x00000000 Disk /dev/xvdb: 21.5 GB, 21474836480 bytes Disk identifier: 0x00000000 Disk /dev/xvdc: 107.4 GB, 107374182400 bytes Disk identifier: 0x00000000 }}} {{{ server-1 $ sudo mkfs.ext4 /dev/xvdc (...) server-1 $ sudo mount -t ext4 /dev/xvdc /srv }}} {{{ server-1 $ df -h Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/xvda 9.9G 622M 8.8G 7% / none 996M 144K 995M 1% /dev none 1001M 0 1001M 0% /dev/shm none 1001M 48K 1001M 1% /var/run none 1001M 0 1001M 0% /var/lock none 1001M 0 1001M 0% /lib/init/rw /dev/xvdb 20G 173M 19G 1% /mnt /dev/xvdc 99G 188M 94G 1% /srv }}} {{{ $ euca-detach-volume vol-00000001 }}} === Reusing an Old Volume === {{{ $ euca-attach-volume -i i-00000001 -d /dev/xvdc vol-00000001 }}} {{{ server-1 $ sudo mount -t ext4 /dev/xvdc /srv }}} {{{ $ euca-detach-volume vol-00000001 }}} == Advanced topics == === Attach to the project's VPN === Each project has a VPN assigned to it. You can attach any computer to it, thus having it connected to your project's internal network. So as to do so, you have to perform several steps (instructions only for GNU/Linux): 1. Copy your `~.cloud` to the machine that you want to attach to your project's VPN. 1. Install [[https://www.openvpn.net/|OpenVPN]] on that machine. 1. Launch openvpn with the `nova-vpn.conf` configuration file. {{{ # cd cloud_credentials # openvpn --config nova-vpn.conf }}} Please note that there are several paths in the `nova-vpn.conf` configuration file that are relative to the directory in which it is located. Should you wish to use different/separated paths, please edit `nova-vpn.conf` and adjust the `cert`, `key` and `ca` parameters. MacOS users may use [[http://code.google.com/p/tunnelblick/| Tunnelblick]] (a GUI interface to OpenVPN) that can use the `nova-vpn.conf` and certificate files without any changes. # === Manage multiple credentials === # and checking that `NOVA_API`, `NOVA_CERT`, `NOVA_PROJECT`, `NOVA_URL`, `NOVA_USERNAME`, |

1. Introduction
IFCA uses OpenStack for managing the cloud service. You may get access upon request. There are several ways to access the infrastructure, namely:
OpenStack API, that can be used with the different command line interfaces.
OCCI API, that can be used with rOCCI client
2. Documentation
The official, up to date documentation can be found in the following link:
Plase refer to that documentation, since it contains the most up to date and accurate documentation for using OpenStack resources.
Important: Do not hesitate in opening a ticket if you notice problems using cloud services.
