compute vm mk: new --template optionĀ (#453)
Commands:
- compute vm mk shell
- compute vm mk from-template
- compute vm mk from-spec
- compute vm mk from-cloneĀ
- compute vm mk from-clib
A new --template sets the resulting virtual machine as template. For instance, to duplicate a virtual machine template with a minimal modification:
| Code Block |
|---|
vss-cli compute vm mk from-template \
--source my-template --template \
--description 'slightly modified template' \
--client EIS --os ubuntu64Guest --folder group-v2658 -n PUBLIC \
--disk '{"capacity_gb": 20, "scsi": 0}' --disk '{"capacity_gb": 1024, "scsi": 1}' \
--scsi '{"type": "lsilogic", "bus": 0}' --scsi '{"type": "paravirtual", "bus": 1}' \

compute vm mk: new --cores-per-socket optionĀ (#454)
Commands:
- compute vm mk shell
- compute vm mk from-template
- compute vm mk from-spec
- compute vm mk from-cloneĀ
- compute vm mk from-clib
The --cores-per-socket option allows to define an advanced CPU configuration for a new virtual machine. To calculate virtual machine CPU sockets, divide the number of CPUs by the number of cores per socket.
| Note |
|---|
Refer to the Setting the number of cores per CPU in a virtual machine (1010184) KB article for further details and per operating system limitations. |
Creating a virtual machine with 8 CPUs in 2 CPU sockets, the --cores-per-socket value should be 4 as follows:
| Code Block |
|---|
vss-cli compute vm mk shell \
--description 'new virtual machine' \
--cpu 8 --cores-per-socket 4 \
--client EIS --os ubuntu64Guest --folder group-v2658 -n PUBLIC \
--disk '{"capacity_gb": 20, "scsi": 0}' --disk '{"capacity_gb": 1024, "scsi": 1}' \
--scsi '{"type": "lsilogic", "bus": 0}' --scsi '{"type": "paravirtual", "bus": 1}' \
