🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

anc-run-instance Format=[json|xml] PlanName=[Plan] ImageId=[Image ID]
ServerName=[your-server-name] vm_location=[Server Location]
[enablebackup=[Y or N]]] [cloneimage=[name of server to clone]]
[ServerQty=[amount]] [term=[term length]] [key_id=[ID of SSH key]]

📥 INPUT

• Format=[json|xml] — pick your output style, JSON or XML 💅 JSON is the default if you don't pick one, bestie.
• PlanName=[Plan] — this one decides which plan you get 👑
• ImageId=[Image ID] — grab an imageid from the anc-describe-images function 🌈 that's where it lives.
• ServerName=[your-server-name] — a string of text that describes your server AND sets its host name 🍓 double duty, iconic.
• vm_location=[Server Location] — this picks the physical spot where your server gets created 🌍 the valid values are the location_code values returned by the list-locations method, so go check there first 🧚
• enablebackup=[Y or N] — Y turns backups on for your server, N keeps them off 💾 those are the only valid values, no cap.
• cloneimage=[name of server to clone] — the name of the image you want to use as a clone template for your new server(s) 🫶 an example looks like 503408-243434345. you can snag that name by calling list-instance and grabbing the vm_name value. heads up 🚨 the server you pick as the clone template has to be "clonable", so make sure it actually is before you try.
• ServerQty=[amount] — how many servers you want provisioned 💜 it defaults to 1 if you don't say.
• term=[term length] — the term you want for your server(s) 🦋 valid values are on-demand, 1-year, and 3-year, and the default is on-demand. ngl the 1-year and 3-year terms can get you a discount (check our website for the deets) 💸 BUT 😭 you won't be able to remove your server until that term is over, so think it through, bestie.
• key_id=[ID of SSH key] — the ID of the SSH key you want baked into your new server(s) 🔑 an example is yt9p4y64f7dem3e. get it by calling list-sshkeys and grabbing the key_id value.
