Do NOT change the Abiquo tag in public cloud

Do not change the Abiquo platform's tag on a VM in public cloud provider because you could break the link between Abiquo and the VM. If the link is broken, you will not be able to manage the VM with Abiquo.


Field

Description

UUID

The Unique Identifier of the VM

Label

The Name of the VM. Defaults to the VM template name. The platform powers on VMs in ascending alphanumeric name order, so for example, 1_WebServer will power on before 2_Database. However, there is no guarantee that the VMs will finish starting up in the same order.

Fully qualified domain nameOptionally enter the fully qualified domain name (FQDN) of the VM. You can edit this value before you deploy the VM. If you don't enter a FQDN, the platform will automatically generate one. The hostname will be the VM name (format ABQ-uuid) or another Abiquo identifier (format ABQ-id). The domain will be the domain value of the private or external networks that the VM belongs to, or localdomain. After you deploy the VM, if you change the value in the operating system, then Abiquo will synchronize and obtain the new value.

Owner

The enterprise and user that owns the VM

Guest initial passwordGenerate an initial root or Administrator password for the VM and email it to the owner. You can change this value before you deploy the VM. See Guest setup

Remote access

Remote Access to the VM by VNC may be Not Available, usually because the VM is not deployed. If it is available and you have the View datacenter details privilege, the Remote Access IP and Port will be displayed.

Remote Access Password

To open the remote access window to your VM from the eye button on the control panel, you must enter this password. By default Abiquo will generate a random password for your VM. To change the password, enter a maximum of 8 characters that are alphanumeric characters only, i.e. [a..z][A..Z][0..9]. 

If the VM is deployed when you change the password, the change will be applied when you save the VM.

Show passwordOptionally mark the checkbox to show the remote access password
