Apache CloudStack Settings

Chaotic will pick a random instance carrying the configured tag and stop and start it with a delay of a configurable time (default 60s).

Config.yml

kind: cloudstack
dry_run: false
configs:

  # Required, filter tag
  tag:
    key: chaos
    value: enabled

  # Optional: filter by zone ID
  zoneid: ...

  # Optional: Use project instead of account

  # Optional, 60 seconds is the default
  wait_before_restart: 60

tag is required

Unlike the other clouds, CloudStack has no cheap way to scope a query to "machines meant for chaos". Without a tag, every instance in the account would be a candidate, so chaotic refuses to run and logs a warning instead.
