NAME
euca2ools —
eucalyptus command line client tools
DESCRIPTION
The euca2ools suite is a set of command
line tools that interact with “Amazon Web Services” (AWS),
Eucalyptus, and other AWS-compatible clouds using the REST- and query-based
APIs for numerous web services.
The URL for each web service can be set with a
SERVICE-url region option, where
SERVICE is the name of the service, in
euca2ools.ini(5) configuration
files and then chosen with the --region command line
option or the EUCA_DEFAULT_REGION or
AWS_DEFAULT_REGION environment variables.
Alternatively, the URL can be set at the command line or with an environment
variable that is specific to the service. Environment variables take
precedence over configuration file data.
euca2ools are designed to make it as easy
as possible to work with multiple AWS-compatible clouds from the command
line using euca2ools.ini(5)
configuration files, command line options, and shortcuts.

NOTES
The “bootstrap” service, also known as the “Empyrean” service, is specific to eucalyptus. Commands that bundle images can optionally use it to obtain the cloud's signing certificate automatically, provided the cloud runs eucalyptus 4.2 or later.
