cloud/join-method
ID for Access Key (not the secret)
This Param defines how a newly created Cloud Instance should attempt to join to a DRP Endpoint for subsequent management.
The defined method will alter the Terraform plan file to use different stanzas
for the appropriately selected join method. These are often done as a
provisioner "local-exec"
section.
Note that join-methods should generally have a method for removing the Machine
object from the DRP Endpoint as a cleanup step. Typically this is done within
the provisioner "local-exec"
with a conditional clause like:
when = destroy
The following methods are supported:
synchronize
: Utilizes thesyncronize.sh
script which uses parsed state information from the Instance creation to pre-create a DRP Machine object.discovery
: Uses the default path of allowing a Machine to boot in to the definedunknownBootenv
and subsequentdefaultWorkflow
, which then should create the Machine object if it doesn't already exist (based on the Fingerprint algorithms).
