Hi Marcel, However, when I create an AMI, terminate the cluster and create a new
cluster using the new AMI, both /mnt/galaxyData and /mnt/galaxyTools do not exist anymore, i.e. /dev/sdg3 and /dev/sdg4 are not mounted automatically. If I mount those two devices manually, everything runs smoothly again.
So, is there anything that I might have forgotten to do while creating the AMI? Is there a way to make sure that those devices will be mounted automatically?
It is not necessary to create a new AMI when wanting to customize your cluster. Instead, on the admin interface - after you have modified the file systems, there is an option to persist static file systems (galaxyTools & galaxyIndices). Once the process is completed and you restart the cluster, just continue to use the same AMI. CloudMan will use the new, customized, data snapshots at runtime.
Let us know how it goes, Enis
Regards, Marcel

Hi Marcel, It would be best to use 'galaxy' user to add any tools. To do so, after you've logged in as ubuntu user, simply execute: sudo su galaxy and you will become galaxy user. You can then make the desired modifications.
Good luck, Enis

Hello Marcel,
In the future, please send all questions like this to the galaxy-dev mailing list, as doing so will streamline the process of getting a timely answer. I believe Enis is best able to answer your questions.
Thanks!

Hi Greg,
I'm currently trying to create a GalaxyCloudman version that includes
CADDSuite.
Thus, I launched GalaxyCloudman as described in your wiki and tried to
modify it afterwards.
Well, starting cloudman worked without any problems... so far, so good
:-)
As described on http://wiki.g2.bx.psu.edu/**Admin/Cloud/Customize%** 20Galaxy%20Cloud<http://wiki.g2.bx.psu.edu/Admin/Cloud/Customize%20Galaxy%20Cloud> I could then log-in via ssh as user 'ubuntu' (not as user 'galaxy'). However, all files of the galaxy installation belong to user and group
'galaxy'.
Thus my question: How should users be able to customize cloudman? Is
there some trick by which I can log-in as 'galaxy' or do you have any other idea how to make this work ? ;-)
Sorry Greg, if you are not the correct contact in this case, but I found
not specific contact or mailing list for cloudman. Perhaps, you could just forward this mail in that case ...
Cheers, Marcel
