Virtualmaster CLI can install your SSH keys to a remote machine automatically using --identity IDENTITY_FILE command-line option.

virtualmaster create demo1 --image ubuntu_lucid --identity ~/.ssh/id_rsa
Using image 'ubuntu_lucid' with ID 124
Creating 'micro' instance (512 MB memory/10 GB storage)

Instance ready.

Loading identity file /Users/virtualmaster/.ssh/id_rsa

Try to login using `ssh root@195.140.253.130'

Instance provisioning with shell scripts

First steps towards automated infrastructure is provision. Using Virtualmaster CLI shell provisioner you can launch a custom shell script once server is created and automate initial setup.

virtualmaster create demo1 --script ~/setup.sh

Callbacks (like script and identity) can be run at the same time.

Instance size

Default hardware profile for instances are defined in the helpers file. Profiles are stored in configuration file when user runs virtualmaster config.

Provided instance sizes are just guidance and you are free to create your own settings by editing ~/.virtualmaster config file.
