Creating a machine

While on a pod's details view, select 'Compose' from the 'Take action' drop-down menu to compose a machine.

You can choose which storage to use from a drop-down list.

Click the 'Compose machine' button when you're finished. MAAS will present the pod detail view. In a few moments, your new machine will be auto-commissioned. The 'Machines' page will reflect this as well.

CLI

Creating RSD machines in MAAS using the CLI is identical to creating KVM virtual machines. Please see Creating and deleting machines for more information.

Delete a machine

To delete a machine, simply delete it as you would any other MAAS node. Select the desired machine from the list of machines and select 'Delete' from the 'Take Action' menu.
