Server Configuration Details

KeyValue
name Server name.
cpu CPU quota in core MHz.
smp Number of virtual processors, or ‘auto’ to calculate based on cpu. When the server starts, this key stays unchanged, but two extra keys, “smp:cores” and “smp:sockets”, appear with the number of cores allocated and the number of sockets (virtual cpus) that these appear in.
mem virtual memory size in MB.
persistent ‘true’ means that server will revert to a ‘stopped’ status on server stop or shutdown, rather than being destroyed automatically.
ide:BUS[0-1]:UNIT[0-1]
scsi:BUS[0]:UNIT[0-7]
block:INDEX[0-7]
Drive UUID to connect as specified device.
ide:BUS[0-1]:UNIT[0-1]:media
scsi:BUS[0]:UNIT[0-7]:media
block:INDEX[0-7]:media
Media type – set to ‘cdrom’ to simulate a cdrom, set to ‘disk’ or leave unset to simulate a hard disk.
boot Device to boot, e.g. ide:0:0 or ide:1:0. Set to a list to make multiple devices bootable.
nic:0:model Create network interface with given type (use ‘e1000′ as default value; ‘rtl8139′ or ‘virtio’ are also available).
nic:0:dhcp The IP address offered by DHCP to network interface 0. If unset, no address is offered. Set to ‘auto’ to allocate a temporary IP at boot. When the server starts, this key stays unchanged, but an extra key “nic:0:dhcp:ip” appears with the IP allocated.
nic:0:firewall:policy Defines the action to be applied to all packets not matching an existing firewall rule. Possible values are ‘accept’ or ‘reject’.
This key only exists if the built-in firewall is in use, and setting it to any value will enable the firewall.
nic:0:firewall:accept Defines which, if any, inbound ports should be opened and to which protocols. Takes a space separated list in the form PROTOCOL/[IP ADDRESS]/[CIDR MASK]/PORT[:RANGE], eg. “tcp/22″ or “udp/10.0.0.0/16/5900:5902″. See the control panel firewall tooltip for more details.
This key only exists if the built-in firewall is in use, and setting it to any value will enable the firewall.
nic:0:firewall:reject Defines which, if any, inbound ports should be closed and to which protocols. Takes a space separated list in the form PROTOCOL/[IP ADDRESS]/[CIDR MASK]/PORT[:RANGE], eg. “tcp/22″ or “udp/10.0.0.0/16/5900:5902″. See the control panel firewall tooltip for more details.
This key only exists if the built-in firewall is in use, and setting it to any value will enable the firewall.
nic:1:model Create network interface with given type (use ‘e1000′ as default value; ‘rtl8139′ or ‘virtio’ are also available).
nic:1:vlan The VLAN to which the network interface is attached.
nic:1:mac The MAC address of the network interface. If unset, a randomly generated address is used. If set, should be unique on the VLAN.
vnc IP address for overlay VNC access on port 5900. Set to ‘auto’, to reuse nic:0:dhcp if available, or otherwise allocate a temporary IP at boot.
password Password for VNC access (maximum of 8 characters). If unset, VNC is disabled.
vnc:tls Set to ‘on’ to require VeNCrypt-style TLS auth in addition to the password. If this is unset, only unencrypted VNC is available.
tags optional, space-separated list of tags
user:* optional, user-defined KEY VALUE pairs
avoid:drives optional, space-separated list of existing drives to ensure this new server is created on physical different hardware than those existing drives
avoid:servers optional, space-separated list of existing servers to ensure this new server is created on physical different hardware than those existing servers
