## Example Usage

```
# Provision a server
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"
}


```

* `on` | `started` - machine powered on
* `off` | `stopped` - machine powered off forcefully
* `paused` - freeze machine: memory, processes, billing, monitoring.
* `shutdown` - shutdown gracefully
* `reboot` - restart gracefully
* `reset` - restart forcefully

<a id="disks"></a>
## Disks

`additional_disks` is a block within the configuration that may be
repeated to specify the attached disks on a server. Each
`additional_disks` block supports the following:

* `type` - (Required, string) Either "raw" or "partitioned".
* `size_gb` - (Required, int) Size of allocated disk.
* `path` - (Required, string, type:`partitioned`) The mountpoint for the disk.


<a id="custom_fields"></a>
## CustomFields

`custom_fields` is a block within the configuration that may be

## Packages

`packages` is a block within the configuration that may be repeated to

instantiation. Packages facilitate various tasks like ssh key
installation, kernel upgrades, etc. Package ID as well as parameters
are configured via this block.

Example:

```
# Configure the CLC Provider
provider "clc_server" "ubuntu" {
  ...
  packages
    {
      id = "77abb844-579d-478d-3955-c69ab4a7ba1a"
      SshKey = "ssh-rsa AAAAB3NzaC1yc2EAAAABIwAA..."
    }
}
