Rackspace

To create a server called web.temp.server on Rackspace:

sudo ~/.virtualenvs/create_cloud_server/bin/python \
  ~/.virtualenvs/create_cloud_server/bin/salt-cloud \
  -p openstack_512 \
  web.temp.server

On the Mac we need to use the full path including the username… (replacing ‘username’ and ‘path_to_cloud_profiles’ respectively)

sudo /Users/username/.Virtualenvs/create_cloud_server/bin/python \
  /Users/username/.Virtualenvs/create_cloud_server/bin/salt-cloud \
  --profiles=/Users/username/path_to_cloud_profiles/salt-cloud/cloud.profiles \
  --providers-config=/Users/username/path_to_cloud_profiles/salt/cloud/cloud.providers \
  --profile=openstack_512 \
  web.temp.server
