resource "clc_server" "node" {
  name_template = "trusty"
  source_server_id = "UBUNTU-14-64-TEMPLATE"
  group_id = "${clc_group.frontends.id}"
  cpu = 2
  memory_mb = 2048
  password = "Green123$"
  additional_disks
    {
        path = "/var"
        size_gb = 100
        type = "partitioned"
    }
  additional_disks
    {
        size_gb = 10
        type = "raw"
    }
}

output "server_id" {
  value = "clc_server.node.id"
}


```
