Onboarding

Getting started with the Cloud Console

To get access to your organization in Cloud Console you need to be added by an admin in the organization or by our support.

The Cloud Console is located at https://console.elastx.cloud

Reviewing existing resources

If you have been an Elastx customer since before the Cloud Console was introduced, begin by reviewing DBaaS and Openstack projects in the Cloud Console, ie. make sure your current projects are listed.

If something is missing or incorrect, please contact our support.

Adding users

If you are a member of the “Admins” group for your organization, you can add/invite other users.

To view members of the “Admins” and “Members” group, click “Organization” in the sidebar.

To add new members to your organization, click “Users” in the sidebar and the “Add user” button on the new page.

New users will automatically be added to your organization’s “Members” group. To make a user admin:

  1. Click “Organization” in the sidebar
  2. Below the “Admins” header, click the “Add member” button
  3. Select the user(s), click the “Save” button

Setting up projects

Create the DBaaS/Openstack projects you need.

For DBaaS, the difference between “Admins” and “Members” for a project is just that “Admins” for a project can add/remove other users’ access in the Cloud Console. They both have full permissions in CCX to manage datastores.

Openstack project names needs to be globally unique, ie. not already in use by another customer. If you try to create a project with an existing name you will get an error that says the project already exists.

For Openstack you can manage access with the native Openstack project roles. When viewing a Openstack project in Cloud Console, use the edit button next to a members name to edit their roles. Or press the “Add member” button to add a new member from the organization to the project.
