Read Me: __author__ = "Ciara Stacke" __version__ = "1.0.1" __status__ = "Alpha" Welcome to the CloudTools package. In order to run the program, there is some initial set-up configuration. The program also makes some assumptions the user should be aware of BEFORE YOU START: 1. The application is run by running the CloudTools.py module. 2. AWS: Ensure environmental variables are configured to allow access to a boto configuration file containing AWS credentials. Otherwise, enter boto credentials directly into the "Connections.py" file. 3. OpenStack: Enter OpenStack Credentials in the OpenStackConn.py file. The SSL security check is set to "false"; the user can instead enter path to a SSL certificate if desired. 4. Ensure you have all necessary information to hand (see ASSUMPTIONS). 5. All modules in the package are necessary to run the program. 6. FULL PATH of all source and destination paths should be provided when eg. uploading a file to a bucket eg.C:\Users\File_Name.txt 7. Where possible, avoid typos when submitting information to the application. 8. The Cloud Tools functionality requires that a security group has been created (this is how the application retreives the Account ID as there is no built-in way to retrieve this information in boto. Security groups are created automatically when an EC2 instance is launched). ASSUMPTIONS: 1. The user has an AWS and OpenStack account. 2. The user has their AWS and OpenStack configuration credentials set (see above). 3. The user has entered their credentials in the OpenStackConn.py file (see above). 4. The user has at least one Keypair created on their AWS EC2 service. 5. The user has at least one security group created on their AWS account (see above).
