Usage¶
Azure does not handle user data parameters.
Each Cloud provider has its own way to handle user data parameters. Please follow these tutorials to learn how to use them:
The parameters can be set when creating the instance, in the Advanced details section at step 3 (Configure Instance):
Or when an existing instance is stopped, in Actions > Instance Settings > Edit user data:
You can then copy and paste your code, or import a file containing the code in JSON format.
The parameters can only be set from an existing instance when it is stopped:
- From the Allyun console, go to Elasctic Compute Service > Instances & Images > Instances
-
Click on a stopped instance to access its details:
-
Click on All Operations and select Set user data:
-
Copy and paste your JSON code:
-
Click Ok to apply the parameters.
The parameters can be set when creating the instance, in the Management > Metadata section:
-
Click ADD ITEM
-
In the Key field, input the string
genymotionConfig
-
In the Value field, copy and paste your JSON code:
-
Create your instance.

It is also possible to set the parameters in an existing instance when it is stopped:
- In VM instance details, click EDIT
-
In Custom metadata, click Add item

Set the Key to
