Description

Common options

The word "cloud" is an umbrella for all commands related to the interconnection with the Cloud. 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 list instances

VBoxManage cloud <--provider=name> <--profile=name> list instances [--state=string] [--compartment-id=string]

Displays the list of the instances for a specified compartment.

--state"running/paused/terminated"

The state of cloud instance. The possible states are "running/paused/terminated" at moment. If the state isn't provided the list of instances with all possible states is returned.

--compartment-id

A compartment is the logical container used to organize and isolate cloud resources. The different cloud providers can have the different names for this entity.

cloud list images

VBoxManage cloud <--provider=name> <--profile=name> list images <--compartment-id=string> [--state=string]

Displays the list of the images for a specified compartment.

--state"available/disabled/deleted"

The state of cloud image. The possible states are "available/disabled/deleted" at moment. If the state isn't provided the list of images with all possible states is returned.

--compartment-id

A compartment is the logical container used to organize and isolate cloud resources. The different cloud providers can have the different names for this entity.

cloud instance create

VBoxManage cloud <--provider=name> <--profile=name> instance create <--domain-name=name> <<--image-id=id> | <--boot-volume-id=id>> <--display-name=name> <--shape=type> <--subnet=id> [--boot-disk-size=size in GB] [--publicip=true/false] [--privateip=IP address] [--public-ssh-key=key string...] [--launch-mode=NATIVE/EMULATED/PARAVIRTUALIZED] [--cloud-init-script-path=path to a script]

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.

--domain-name

Cloud domain where new instance is created.

--image-id

Unique identifier which fully identifies a custom image in the Cloud.

--boot-volume-id

Unique identifier which fully identifies a boot volume in the Cloud.

--display-name

Name for new instance in the Cloud.

--shape

The shape of instance, defines the number of CPUs and RAM memory.

--subnet

Unique identifier which fully identifies an existing subnet in the Cloud which will be used by the instance.

--boot-disk-size

The size of bootable image in GB. Default is 50GB.

--publicip

Whether the instance will have a public IP or not.

--privateip

Private IP address for the created instance.

--public-ssh-key

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".

--launch-mode

The most known values here may be EMULATED, NATIVE, PARAVIRTUALIZED.

--cloud-init-script-path

Absolute path to the user cloud-init script.

cloud instance info

Display information about a cloud instance with a specified id.

--id

Unique identifier which fully identify the instance in the Cloud.

cloud instance termination

Delete a cloud instance with a specified id.

--id

Unique identifier which fully identify the instance in the Cloud.

cloud instance start

Start a cloud instance with a specified id.

--id

Unique identifier which fully identify the instance in the Cloud.

cloud instance pause

Pause a cloud instance with a specified id.

--id

Unique identifier which fully identify the instance in the Cloud.

cloud image create

VBoxManage cloud <--provider=name> <--profile=name> image create <--display-name=name> [--bucket-name=name] [--object-name=name] [--instance-id=unique id]

Creates new image in the Cloud. There are two standard ways to create an image in the Cloud: 1. Create an image from an object in the Cloud Storage; 2. Create an image from an existing cloud instance. For the 1st approach next parameters are required: bucket-name - cloud bucket name where an object is located; object-name - name of object in the bucket; display-name - name for new image in the Cloud. For the 2d approach next parameters are required: instance-id - Id of instance in the Cloud; display-name - name for new image in the Cloud.

--display-name

Name for new image in the Cloud.

--bucket-name

Cloud bucket name where an object is located.

--object-name

Name of object in the bucket.

--instance-id

Unique identifier which fully identifies the instance in the Cloud.

cloud image info

VBoxManage cloud <--provider=name> <--profile=name> image info <--id=unique id>

Display information about a cloud image with a specified id.

--id

Unique identifier which fully identifies the image in the Cloud.

cloud image delete

VBoxManage cloud <--provider=name> <--profile=name> image delete <--id=unique id>

Delete an image with a specified id from the Cloud.

--id

Unique identifier which fully identifies the image in the Cloud.

cloud image import

VBoxManage cloud <--provider=name> <--profile=name> image import <--id=unique id> [--bucket-name=name] [--object-name=name]

Import an image with a specified id from the Cloud to a local host. The result is an object in the local "temp" folder on the local host. Possible approach may have two general steps: 1. Create an object from an image in the Cloud Storage; 2. Download the object to the local host. So the next parameters may be required: bucket-name - cloud bucket name where the object will be created; object-name - name of object in the bucket. if parameter "object-name" is absent a displayed image name is used. If the first step isn't needed only the parameter "id" is required.

--id

Unique identifier which fully identifies the image in the Cloud.

--bucket-name

Cloud bucket name where an object will be created.

--object-name

Name of created object in the bucket. The downloaded object will have this name.

cloud image export

VBoxManage cloud <--provider=name> <--profile=name> image export <--id=unique id> <--display-name=name> [--bucket-name=name] [--object-name=name]

Export an existing VBox image with a specified uuid from a local host to the Cloud. The result is new image in the Cloud. Possible approach may have two general steps: 1. Upload VBox image to the Cloud Storage; 2. Create an image from the uploaded object. So the next parameters may be required: bucket-name -cloud bucket name where the object will be uploaded; object-name - name of object in the bucket. If parameter "object-name" is absent the image id is used; display-name - name for new image in the Cloud. If the first step isn't needed the parameters "id" and "display-name" are required only.

--id

Unique identifier of the image in the VirtualBox.

--display-name

Name for new image in the Cloud.

--bucket-name

Cloud bucket name where the image (object) will be uploaded.

--object-name

Name of object in the bucket.
