Enter the cloud service (either AWS, Azure, ROR, K5, VMware or a physical server) to connect with in the Description Summary or Description Details for platform providers to indicate which cloud will be used.
Depending on the cloud to be coordinated, the number of virtual machines which can be added at one time may be limited to one. Describe the restrictions used by platform providers or other advisory notes in the Description Summary or Description Details.
When adding the first virtual machine under a platform using ROR, the instance type is configured according to the definition of the L-Platform template in the cloud vendor definition. For this reason, when deploying the first virtual machine, it is necessary to specify an instance type which is compatible with the system disk image.
In order for platform providers to be able to recognize suitable combinations of system disk images and instance types, include advisory notes in the description summary and description details.

About the [To be determined after discussion] Check Box
The [To be determined after discussion] check box is displayed next to each item in Details.
Items for which the checkbox is checked are set as having usage charges which are not yet configured when the menu is published. This allows platform providers to have meetings with operators to determine prices outside the system after the platform request is made. To reflect the charges to the platform after the meeting, the operators must create Hidden menus using menu operation commands and add the platform decided upon in these meetings using platform operation commands.
To display this checkbox, select an item other than "No Approval" for [Approval Level] in the [Basic Information] window.
For details on how to use menu operation and platform operation commands, refer to the "FUJITSU Software Cloud Services Management Operation Guide".
