An IBM Cloud Schematics template to provision a virtual machine instance and configure it with the "LEMP" stack: Linux, NGINX, MySQL (mariadb), and PHP. Schematics uses Terraform as the infrastructure as code engine. With this template, you can provision and manage infrastructure as a single unit.
See the IBM Cloud docs for more information about Schematics.
This sample uses chargable services and will incur costs for the time the services are deployed. Execution of terraform destroy will result in deletion of all resources including the ICD service instance. Billing for VSIs and ICD will terminate on the hour.
- User has IAM security rights to create and configure an IBM Cloud Database instance and VSIs
The following variables need to be set before use
softlayer_usernameis an Infrastructure user name. Go to https://cloud.ibm.com/iam/users/, select the user, scroll down and check username under VPN password.softlayer_api_keyis an Infrastructure API Key. Go to https://cloud.ibm.com/iam/users/, select the user, scroll down and check Classic infrastructure API key under API keys. If you don't have one already, go to https://cloud.ibm.com/iam/#/apikeys and create a new Classic infrastructure key.
| Variable Name | Description | Default Value |
