SoftLayer Cloud Module#

The SoftLayer cloud module is used to control access to the SoftLayer VPS system.

Use of this module only requires the apikey parameter. Set up the cloud configuration at:

my-softlayer-config:
  # SoftLayer account api key
  user: MYLOGIN
  apikey: JVkbSJDGHSDKUKSDJfhsdklfjgsjdkflhjlsdfffhgdgjkenrtuinv
  driver: softlayer

The SoftLayer Python Library needs to be installed in order to use the SoftLayer salt.cloud modules. See: https://pypi.python.org/pypi/SoftLayer
