The next common options must be placed between the "cloud" and the following sub-commands: --provider=name Short cloud provider name. --profile=name Cloud profile name. cloud instance create Creates new instance in the Cloud. There are two standard ways to create an instance in the Cloud: 1. Create an instance from an existing custom image. 2. Create an instance from an existing bootable volume. This bootable volume shouldn't be attached to any instance. For the 1st approach next parameters are required: image-id and boot-disk-size. For the 2nd approach next parameters are required: boot-volume-id; The rest parameters are common for both cases: display-name, launch-mode, subnet-id, publicIP, privateIP, shape, domain. Cloud domain where new instance is created. Unique identifier which fully identifies a custom image in the Cloud. Unique identifier which fully identifies a boot volume in the Cloud. Name for new instance in the Cloud. The shape of instance, defines the number of CPUs and RAM memory. Unique identifier which fully identifies an existing subnet in the Cloud which will be used by the instance. The size of bootable image in GB. Default is 50GB. Whether the instance will have a public IP or not. Private IP address for the created instance. Public SSH key used to connect to the instance via SSH. This parameter may be repeated if you plan to use more than one key as: "--public-ssh-key=firstSSHKey --public-ssh-key=secondSSHKey". The most known values here may be EMULATED, NATIVE, PARAVIRTUALIZED. cloud instance info Display information about a cloud instance with a specified id. Unique identifier which fully identify the instance in the Cloud. cloud instance termination Delete a cloud instance with a specified id. Unique identifier which fully identify the instance in the Cloud. cloud instance start Start a cloud instance with a specified id. Unique identifier which fully identify the instance in the Cloud. cloud instance pause Pause a cloud instance with a specified id. Unique identifier which fully identify the instance in the Cloud.
