OVH Public Cloud

Muppy integrates with OVH Public Cloud so you can create and manage cloud instances directly as Muppy Hosts. From a connected OVH account you can:

  • Commission (create) one or more instances and have Muppy register, provision and enroll them automatically — each new instance arrives as a ==Managed== Host, ready to use, with no manual SSH setup.
  • Manage their lifecycle — an automatic decommission date is set as a safety net, and you can decommission a Host (which also deletes the OVH instance) at any time.

OVH access = a Cloud Provider Account

OVH access is configured through an OVH Cloud Provider Account — an OVH API token, found under Muppy ▸ Configuration ▸ OVH ▸ Cloud Providers Accounts. One account can expose several OVH projects; you choose a default project / region / flavor / image / SSH key that pre-fills the commission wizard.

In this section

  • Commission an Instance — connect an account, set its default catalog, create instances with the wizard, and manage the host lifecycle (auto-decommission and decommission).
  • Import existing instances — register OVH instances that already exist as Muppy Hosts (fetch → import → enroll).

Creating vs importing

Commission creates new instances. Import registers instances that already exist on OVH.
