HI Folks, I'm not clear on what services the cloud platform brings to bear and what configuration of my virtual machines I have to do to both accommodate cloudstack or compensate for cloudstack.
If I deploy, say, a Fedora image to my cloudstack cloud absent any specific configuration, will I be able to use its desktop through, say, a browser? Obviously, if the Fedora image is properly configured, I could use VNC or RDP, but does this mean I need to deploy a properly "pre-configured" image, or does cloudstack have a mechanism where this configuration is "asserted" during spin up or installation in the absence of any overriding configuration? These also mean I have to have the native clients on my local machine, and the world is moving toward the universal client, the web browser, so is there a browser-based way to interact with my virtual machines' desktops? And that leaves the final question. Do I configure an image and deploy it knowing that it will live in a cloud absent display hardware, or can I do an install to my cloud and expect that the resulting image will have some method of connection over and above ssh, like some form of remote desktop provided as a service of the cloud platform? Thanks for the help, Chris.
