WUYING Workspace:Create cloud computers

Create cloud computers

When you create cloud computers, you must configure settings, such as cloud environments, networks, security policies, and tags. To create cloud computers, perform the following steps:

1. Log on to the WUYING Workspace (Pro Edition) console.

2. In the left-side navigation pane, choose Resources & Terminals > Cloud Computers.

3. In the upper-left corner of the top navigation bar, select a region.

4. On the Cloud Computers page, click Create Cloud Computer.

5. On the Purchase Cloud Computer page, configure parameters in each wizard.

   Configure Cloud Environment

   1. Specify Region to deploy cloud computers in a region. To reduce latency, we recommend that you select a region that is nearest to your users.

   2. Specify Office Network, in which your cloud computers reside.

      You can select an existing convenience office network or an enterprise Active Directory (AD) office network. You can also click Create Office Network to create a new office network. For more information, see Create and manage a convenience office network or Create and manage an enterprise AD office network.

      Note

      After you create an office network, click the icon to refresh and view the updated office network list.

   Configure Cloud Computer

   1. Specify the number of cloud computers that you want to purchase.

      You can specify the number of cloud computers by using one of the following methods.

      Note

      • Cloud computer templates include popular templates (built-in system templates) and custom templates. If the existing templates cannot meet your business requirements, click Create a cloud computer template to create a cloud computer template. After a cloud computer template is created, refresh and view the updated template lists.

      • You can select up to three types of cloud computer templates in the Popular Templates and Custom Templates sections. Each cloud computer template can be used to create up to 100 cloud computers. If you want to create more than 300 cloud computers, you must place multiple orders.

      Custom Value

      If you set the Determine Cloud Computer Quantity By parameter to Custom Value, find the cloud computer templates that you want to use in the Popular Templates or Custom Templates section and specify the number of cloud computers in the Quantity column.

      Then, create users and assign cloud computers to the users.

      Number of Authorized Users

      If you set the Determine Cloud Computer Quantity By parameter to Number of Authorized Users, find the cloud computer templates that you want to use and specify the users for which you want to create cloud computers. Then, specify the number of cloud computers that you want to purchase for each user in the Per-user Quantity column.

      The operations vary based on the account type of your office network. The following section describes how to create cloud computers for users.

      • Office network of the convenience account type (convenience office network)

        In the Popular Templates or Custom Templates section, find the desired cloud computer templates, click Select User in the Authorized Users column, and then specify the number of cloud computers that you want to purchase for each user in the Per-user Quantity column.

        Note

        If you cannot find the desired user, click Create User to create a user. For more information, see Create a convenience user.

      • Office network of the enterprise AD account type (enterprise AD office network)

        You can directly select the AD users in the corresponding AD domain controller, or import users by uploading a .csv file.

        • Select users

          1. In the Select Users panel, select the Select tab.

          2. Select AD users and click OK.

             If no AD user is available on the Select tab, no AD user is created in the AD domain controller. In this case, you must log on to the AD domain server to create an AD user.

        • Import users

          1. In the Select Users panel, select the Upload tab.

          2. Use one of the following methods to create a file that contains user information in the .csv format.

             Note

             When you enter user information, you must specify the SamAccountName column for user logon names and the DisplayName column for user display names.

             • Click Download, open the downloaded template, enter the user information in the format provided by the template, and then save the file.

             • Use an Excel software to open a blank document, specify user information, and then save the document as a .csv file.

          3. Click Select File, select the file that contains the information about AD users, and then follow the on-screen instructions to import the users.

             Note

             • The system automatically checks whether the AD user information in the uploaded .csv file matches the AD user created on the AD domain controller. You can click View Match Details to view the result.

             • You can assign cloud computers only to users in the Matched list.

             • For the users that are displayed in the Mismatched User list, you can modify the user information and click Resubmit to resubmit the user information.

   2. Select a billing method.

      Cloud computers support the subscription and pay-as-you-go billing methods. For more information about the billing methods, see Billing methods.

   3. (Conditional) Select whether to enable auto-renewal.

   Configure Network

   Each cloud computer provides a basic bandwidth plan that has a peak bandwidth of 5 Mbit/s. If you want a higher bandwidth, purchase a premium bandwidth plan. For more information, see Manage Internet access.

   Billing on premium bandwidth plans

   If you enable premium bandwidth, you are charged for premium bandwidth plans. For more information, see Billable items. The following billing methods are provided:

   • Pay-by-bandwidth (Subscription)

   • Pay-by-data-transfer (Pay-as-you-go)

   • Pay-by-bandwidth (Pay-as-you-go)

   By default, the billing method of a premium bandwidth plan is consistent with that of your cloud computers.

   • If the billing method of your cloud computers is subscription, the billing method of the premium bandwidth plan is Pay-by-bandwidth (Subscription).

   • If the billing method of your cloud computers is pay-as-you-go, you can set the billing method to Pay-by-data-transfer (Pay-as-you-go) or Pay-by-bandwidth (Pay-as-you-go).

   To cancel the billing method consistency between cloud computers and premium bandwidth plans, clear Same Billing Method below the Billing Method parameter.

   Automatically renew premium bandwidth plans

   • If you select Pay-by-bandwidth (Subscription), you can enable auto-renewal for a premium bandwidth plan. This can prevent Internet access failures due to bandwidth plan expiration.

   • If you enable auto-renewal for premium bandwidth plans, we recommend that you enable the auto-renewal feature for cloud computers at the earliest opportunity to prevent resource waste.

   • After you enable the premium bandwidth feature for an office network, all cloud computers in the office network can access the Internet. If you want to manage the Internet access of cloud computers in a fine-grained manner, configure network settings in the Internet Access Control section on the office network details page. For more information, see the "Troubleshooting" section of the Manage Internet access topic.

   Manage the Internet access permissions of cloud computers

   By default, when you create cloud computers, the cloud computers can access the Internet. If you do not want the cloud computers in the current order to access the Internet, clear Cloud computers in this order can access the Internet below the Internet Access Control parameter.

   Advanced Options

   1. Select a security policy.

      You can select an existing policy from the Security Policy section or click Create Policy in the lower part of the section to create a policy. After the policy is created, refresh and view the updated policy list. For more information, see Policy overview.

   2. Configure a scheduled task.

      To configure a scheduled task for the cloud computers that you created, click Configure Scheduled Task for Cloud Computer in This Order. In the Configure Scheduled Task panel, configure the tasks that you want the system to perform at scheduled points in time. You can also configure scheduled tasks after you create cloud computers. For more information, see Configure a scheduled task.

   3. Add tags to cloud computers.

      A tag is a key-value pair that consists of a tag key and tag value. Tags are used to identify resources. You can use tags to group and manage cloud computers. Tags help you search for and perform batch operations on cloud computers with ease. For more information, see Use tags to manage cloud computers.

6. Confirm the preceding configurations and the fees of the cloud computers that you want to create, and click Confirm Order.

   In the Shopping Cart section on the right side of the Activate WUYING Workspace page, you can view the information about the cloud computers that you want to create. You can also change the name and the number of cloud computers based on your business requirements.
