CloudSigma

Configure the target cloud in two ways: via the UI or via API functions.

To configure the target cloud via the UI, open the ACP. In the right part of the page, above the client list, click the Manage Clouds button. The page displays information about the target clouds. Use the available commands in the Actions menu to configure clouds. To add a cloud, click Add below the table with the list of target clouds.

Select the CloudSigma cloud type.

Fill in the fields on the Basic Parameters tab by providing information about the cloud configuration. Click "?" for field tips.

The table below provides a normative mapping between UI field labels and API parameter names used by Hystax Acura during cloud discovery, replication, and recovery workflows.

Table 1: CloudSigma cloud: basic parameters.

Field name in UI / API	Description	Example
Cloud name / name	The cloud name to be displayed in the UI. The name must be unique.	test_cloud
Username / username	Username to access the target cloud	[email protected]
Password / password	Password to access the target cloud	password
Cloud agent service VLAN ID / cloud_agent_service_vlan_id	If configured, VLAN with this id will be assigned to cloud agent instance along with public IP	a1b2c3d4-e5f6-7890-abcd-ef1234567890
Replication storage type / -	Choose storage type to use for replicated data. Migration and recovery from cloud-native block storage is fastest, but the other storage types can be cheaper. Detailed description.	Cloud-native block storage (Block)

If necessary, add information about additional parameters. To do this, go to the Additional Parameters tab, select the required parameter, and enter its value. The tooltip system works similarly to the Basic Parameters tab. Description of additional parameters:

Table 2: CloudSigma cloud: additional parameters.

Field name in UI / API	Description
API endpoint for compute service / compute_endpoint_override	Override API endpoint for compute service. Useful on clouds with broken service catalog
CPU frequency per core / cpu_frequency	CPU frequency per core multiplier
CPU model / cpu_model	CPU model for created VMs
Cloud Site parallel resources limit / cloud_site_parallel_resources_limit	The number of same-type resources that can be created in parallel during Cloud Site creation
Cloud Site replications timeout (minutes) / cloud_site_replication_timeout	Timeout for a replications during Cloud Site creation (in minutes)
Cloud Site timeout / cloud_site_timeout_min	Cloud site creation timeout in minutes
Cloud agent capacity / max_assigned_volumes	Set this to override cloud agent's assignable volumes capacity
Cloud agent flavor / cloud_agent_flavor	Flavor to use for the cloud agent instances
Cloud agent flavor requirements / cloud_agent_flavor_requirements	Requirements for cloud agent flavor in JSON format, for example: {"cpu": "value", "ram": "value", "hdd": "value"}
Cloud agent image name / cloud_agent_image_name	Name of the cloud agent image from the target cloud
Cloud agent volume type / cloud_agent_volume_type	Cloud agent volume type
Disk bus / disk_bus	Disk bus type for replicated VMs, for example "virtio" or "scsi"
Enable ransomware protection / enable_ransomware_check	Check this box to detect and suspend machines with abnormally large incremental replication size to mitigate possible ransomware impact
Minimal count of cloud agents / min_ca_alive	Minimum count of cloud agents which should stay alive according scaling policy
P2V type / p2v_type	Specify a non-standard P2V value. For example, for Virtuozzo Hybrid Infrastructure, specify \"virtuozzo\".
Ransomware protection threshold / ransomware_threshold	Ransomware protection threshold (in percent). Defines the maximum permissible size of incremental replication relative to the latest full backup. Exceeding this threshold triggers automatic machine suspension.
Region / region_name	Target region name
Replicated volume type / failover_volume_type	Default volume type used to create volumes for replicated VMs
Send replication data to cloud agent directly / use_receiver_mesh	Check this box to send replication data directly to cloud agent, it can increase replication speed.
Skip quotas check / skip_quotas_check	Skip checks of fitting into available subscribed resources. Warning: Enabling this parameter might cause burst usage of cloud resources
Storage tier ID / storage_tier	Override storage tier ID for storage type. By default Standard.
Use cloud-native UEFI / use_native_efi	By default, all UEFI VMs are automatically converted to boot through BIOS. Set this parameter to disable conversion and use cloud-native UEFI boot instead. Please note, that some clouds support BIOS boot only and require this parameter to be disabled.
Use public IP for cloud agent / use_ca_floating_ip	Check this box to create the Cloud Agent with a public IP. This IP will be used by Acura to connect to the Cloud Agent.
