What is the Default Username and Password for my Instances?

Problem

I just created a new instance in Platform9 Managed OpenStack. What are the credentials to log in to the server?

Environment

• Platform9 Managed OpenStack - All Versions

Answer

The default credentials used to access your server are not managed by Platform9.

A common method for authenticating to instances is through the use of SSH Keypairs. Please refer to the Platform9 documentation to Create SSH Key-value Pair and Import SSH Key-value Pair.

Alternatively, you may Set a default password and inject a custom script using User Data.
