Configuring the Eucalyptus User Console

This section covers how to configure the Eucalyptus Console.

Things You Need to Do to Get the Console Running

In order to get the console working for your cloud, you will need to do the following:
  • Modify the configuration file, as detailed in this section. At minimum, you must specify the front end address, and the UI port. You should also be sure to specify the administrative support URL and the support URL.
  • Create the user accounts using the Eucalyptus Administrative Console. For more information see the Eucalyptus Administration Guide.
  • Make sure that any images that you would like users to be able to launch instances from are installed in your cloud; users can't add images from the Eucalyptus Console.
  • Communicate the URL for your Eucalyptus Console installation to the users, and instruct them to use their account name, user name, and password to log in.
