Getting Started With GoGrid

GoGrid is a public cloud host that supports Linux and Windows.

Configuration

To use Salt Cloud with GoGrid log into the GoGrid web interface and create an API key. Do this by clicking on "My Account" and then going to the API Keys tab.

The apikey and the sharedsecret configuration parameters need to be set in the configuration file to enable interfacing with GoGrid:

# Note: This example is for /etc/salt/cloud.providers or any file in the
# /etc/salt/cloud.providers.d/ directory.

my-gogrid-config:
  driver: gogrid
  apikey: asdff7896asdh789
  sharedsecret: saltybacon

Note

A Note about using Map files with GoGrid:

Due to limitations in the GoGrid API, instances cannot be provisioned in parallel with the GoGrid driver. Map files will work with GoGrid, but the -P argument should not be used on maps referencing GoGrid instances.

Note

.. versionchanged:: 2015.8.0

The provider parameter in cloud provider definitions was renamed to driver. This change was made to avoid confusion with the provider parameter that is used in cloud profile definitions. Cloud provider definitions now use driver to refer to the Salt cloud module that provides the underlying functionality to connect to a cloud host, while cloud profiles continue to use provider to refer to provider configurations that you define.

Profiles

Cloud Profiles

Set up an initial profile at /etc/salt/cloud.profiles or in the /etc/salt/cloud.profiles.d/ directory:

gogrid_512:
  provider: my-gogrid-config
  size: 512MB
  image: CentOS 6.2 (64-bit) w/ None

Sizes can be obtained using the --list-sizes option for the salt-cloud command:

# salt-cloud --list-sizes my-gogrid-config
my-gogrid-config:
    ----------
    gogrid:
        ----------
        512MB:
            ----------
            bandwidth:
                None
            disk:
                30
            driver:
            get_uuid:
            id:
                512MB
            name:
                512MB
            price:
                0.095
            ram:
                512
            uuid:
                bde1e4d7c3a643536e42a35142c7caac34b060e9
...SNIP...

Images can be obtained using the --list-images option for the salt-cloud command:

# salt-cloud --list-images my-gogrid-config
my-gogrid-config:
    ----------
    gogrid:
        ----------
        CentOS 6.4 (64-bit) w/ None:
            ----------
            driver:
            extra:
                ----------
            get_uuid:
            id:
                18094
            name:
                CentOS 6.4 (64-bit) w/ None
            uuid:
                bfd4055389919e01aa6261828a96cf54c8dcc2c4
...SNIP...

Assigning IPs

2015.8.0

The GoGrid API allows IP addresses to be manually assigned. Salt Cloud supports this functionality by allowing an IP address to be specified using the assign_public_ip argument. This likely makes the most sense inside a map file, but it may also be used inside a profile.

gogrid_512:
  provider: my-gogrid-config
  size: 512MB
  image: CentOS 6.2 (64-bit) w/ None
  assign_public_ip: 11.38.257.42
