Daniel, two more things..<br><br>When creating a new occi template, can I use as IMAGE_ID an ID of an existing peristent image (of course one that is not currently USED)? <br>At the moment I have some persistent images, from which I configured and set-up VM's with some specific software (I'm working on building a kind of "platform" above the "infrastructure"), and I intend these VM's to be used by end-users. In my original templates (that are using the persistent images), besides
the image disk definition, I had some further disks defined (type FS and SWAP). Would these disks be available if I pass only the persistent image ID in my new_occi_template.erb? I mean, would I get "the very same VM back"?<br>

><br>><br>> hi, we have developed the opennebula cloud with front end and 5 worker nodes , we can successfully create the VM and can deploy them on the worker nodes.Hence we are able to run the windows as well as linux on the dom U of the worker nodes(using XEN) . We are using centos 5.0 on the worker nodes as the host os.We can also manage using Sunstone GUI.<br>
><br>> now we want to provide the software/application to the end user via browser/web interface but we don't have proper guidance for that, can we enable the end user to use the software (i.e matlab) via browser and if
yes then what configuration is left ? , please guide us on that .<br>><br>><br>> -----Inline Attachment Follows-----<br>><br>> _______________________________________________<br>> Users mailing list<br>
