2.2 Initial Configuration before Operation

This section explains the initial configuration tasks to perform after the installation and setup of Cloud Services Management.

  1. Configure definition files

    Configure the system information, cloud vendor information, operation options, "Notifications" for the Cloud Management Portal, etc. These settings are configured using the "definition file" of Cloud Services Management. For the procedure for editing definition files, refer to "2.10 Modifying Settings".

    Note

    Planners and operators should decide the configuration details of definition files beforehand.

  2. Create organizations and users

    Creation of organization information and user information can be performed from the Cloud Management Portal or by using commands. Using commands, batch addition and modification can be performed. For details on the creation procedure from the cloud management portal, refer to the "FUJITSU Software Cloud Services Management User's Guide for Planner and Operator". For details regarding the creation procedure using commands, refer to "5.2.1 Organization Operation Commands" and "5.2.2 User Operation Commands".

    Point

    Creation of Administrator Users

    It is possible to create administrator users with the authority to add, modify, and delete all resources provided by Cloud Services Management and whose operations do not require approval.

    Administrator users belong to the operators.

    Create an administrator user when it is necessary for operators to take over troubleshooting, other process handling, verify connections, etc.

    Creation of the first administrator user must be performed using commands. For details on creation using commands, refer to "5.2.2 User Operation Commands".

    Using the first administrator user, additional administrator users can be created from the Cloud Management Portal. For details on the creation procedure from the cloud management portal, refer to the "FUJITSU Software Cloud Services Management User's Guide for Planner and Operator".

    Note

    When using Active Directory as the directory service integrated with SVOM, it is necessary to add the same users in Cloud Services Management and Active Directory. When there are no entries on Active Directory, it is not possible to log in to the Cloud Management Portal.

    Add users in Active Directory before or after adding the same users in Cloud Services Management.

  3. Create an approval flow

    In Cloud Services Management, approvals are required when adding, modifying, or deleting the following resource information:

    - Organizations

    - Users

    - Menus

    - Projects

    - Platforms

    - Services

    The approval flows are predefined for each resource type and department to which the requester belongs. However, parts of the approval flows can be modified.

    For details on the configuration procedure for approval flows, refer to "2.10.4 Approval Flow Configuration Information".

  4. Create accounting codes and link them to organization information

    An accounting code refers to the code used for categorizing the payers of usage charges for cloud services.

    Accounting codes can be managed using organization information. Multiple accounting codes can be added to a single organization. The same accounting code cannot be added to multiple organizations.

    Specifying accounting codes during the creation of project information for multiple platforms at once determines the payer of the charges for the platforms and the management organization of the platforms.

    Create an accounting code system for use in Cloud Services Management based on organizations responsible for payment, payment methods, and other aspects of operation related to payment.

    Accounting codes can be created using commands. For details, refer to "5.2.13 Accounting Code Operation Commands".

  5. Configure backup

    Cloud Services Management provides two types of backup methods: offline backup and online backup.

    As backup targets differ depending on the backup type, design an operation environment such that backup is performed regularly, using the method appropriate for the intended use of the system.

    For details on backup, refer to "4.2 Backup and Restore".
