\uD83D\uDCD8 Instructions

There are two ways to modify administrator information:

  1. Through the VSS-CLI commands

  2. VSS Cloud Portal

Using VSS-CLI commands

For this example we will use the of test.user

  1. To view a list of virtual machines with administrator information, enter the following command:
    format:

    Code Block
    vss-cli --columns moref,name,folder.path,admin,inform compute vm ls -f admin=<EMAIL OR ID>

    example:

    Code Block
    vss-cli --columns moref,name,folder.path,admin,inform compute vm ls -f admin=test.user

    output:

    Code Block
    moref      name              folder.path                    admin                                              inform
    ---------  ---------------   -----------------------------  -----------------------------------------------  ------------------------
    vm-552331  2206Z-BLA-Dev     TEST > 123 > Services > Dev     Test User 1:815-948-1399:test.user@utoronto.ca  test.user.2@utoronto.ca
    vm-829984  2107Y-TEST123     TEST > 123 > Services > DEV     Test User 1:815-948-1399:test.user@utoronto.ca  test.user.2@utoronto.ca
    vm-449021  2206X-XYZ-Dev2    TEST > 123 > Services > Dev     Test User 1:815-948-1399:test.user@utoronto.ca  test.user.2@utoronto.ca
    

  2. To update the contact information of the admin, provide the ID of the virtual machine you wish to edit. (moref column) vm-55231

    format:

    Code Block
    vss-cli compute vm set <Virtual_Machine_ID> admin "<COMPLETE_NAME>" <EMAIL> <PHONE_NUMER:XXX-XXX-XXXX>

    example:

    Code Block
    vss-cli compute vm set vm-55231 admin "Test User X" test.user.5@utoronto.ca 419-341-2341

    output:

    Code Block
    id                  : 41063
    status              : SUBMITTED
    task_id             : dfefdd03-d5c4-4b73-8030-193315f8be38
    message             : Request has been accepted for processing

  3. Verify the changes have been successfully applied to the virtual machine.
    format:

    Code Block
    vss-cli compute vm get <Virtual_Machine_ID> admin

    example:

    Code Block
    vss-cli compute vm get vm-55231 admin

    output:

    Code Block
    name                : Test User X
    email               : test.user.5@utoronto.ca
    phone               : 419-341-2341

  4. To update the email addresses of other virtual machines, simply repeat the steps outlined above for each machine that requires an update. This will ensure that all virtual machines have up-to-date contact information and are receiving important updates from the ITS Private Cloud Portal.

Using VSS Cloud Portal

  1. Open a web browser and log into the VSS Cloud Portal

  2. Select the virtual machine you wish to update by clicking on the edit icon.


  3. Navigate to the ADMIN tab and proceed to update the email address in the Admin email text field.

  4. Click UPDATE button.

  5. Click CONFIRM button to apply and save the changes.

  6. To update the email addresses of other virtual machines, simply repeat the steps outlined above for each machine that requires an update. This will ensure that all virtual machines have up-to-date contact information and are receiving important updates from the ITS Private Cloud Portal.
