=============================== Getting Started With Aliyun ECS

The Aliyun ECS (Elastic Computer Service) is one of the most popular public cloud hosts in China. This cloud host can be used to manage aliyun instance using salt-cloud.

http://www.aliyun.com/

Dependencies

This driver requires the Python requests library to be installed.

Configuration

Using Salt for Aliyun ECS requires aliyun access key id and key secret. These can be found in the aliyun web interface, in the "User Center" section, under "My Service" tab.

.. code-block:: yaml

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

my-aliyun-config:
  # aliyun Access Key ID
  id: wDGEwGregedg3435gDgxd
  # aliyun Access Key Secret
  key: GDd45t43RDBTrkkkg43934t34qT43t4dgegerGEgg
  location: cn-qingdao
  driver: aliyun

.. 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:

.. code-block:: yaml

    aliyun_centos:
        provider: my-aliyun-config
        size: ecs.t1.small
        location: cn-qingdao
        securitygroup: G1989096784427999
        image: centos6u3_64_20G_aliaegis_20130816.vhd


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

.. code-block:: bash

    # salt-cloud --list-sizes my-aliyun-config
    my-aliyun-config:
        ----------
        aliyun:
            ----------
            ecs.c1.large:
                ----------
                CpuCoreCount:
                    8
                InstanceTypeId:
                    ecs.c1.large
                MemorySize:
                    16.0

    ...SNIP...

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

.. code-block:: bash

    # salt-cloud --list-images my-aliyun-config

Locations can be obtained using the ``--list-locations`` option for the ``salt-cloud``
command:

.. code-block:: bash

    my-aliyun-config:
        ----------
        aliyun:
            ----------
            cn-beijing:

                RegionId:
                    cn-qingdao

Security Group can be obtained using the ``-f list_securitygroup`` option
for the ``salt-cloud`` command:

.. code-block:: bash

    # salt-cloud --location=cn-qingdao -f list_securitygroup my-aliyun-config
    my-aliyun-config:
        ----------
        aliyun:
