Euca2ools uses two kinds of credentials to authenticate user
identity: X.509 PEM-encoded certificates and access keys. In
addition, you must also specify service endpoints.
You must either define a set of environment variables in advance
or use command-line options to allow Euca2ools to communicate
with the cloud and verify user identity.
You can specify each value individually using the command line or
set all of them collectively by sourcing the eucarc file. For
more information, see
Source a Eucarc File.
