How do I add a new resource that will be used by default by new users?

8.1. How do I add a new resource that will be used by default by new users?

When adding a new resource, the resource description file ( Resources.xml ) located at Atomia Provisioning\Bin must be updated.

To add a new resource (that will be the default one for new customers from here on) you need to:

set the resourceAsignmentPolicy attribute value for the module we are adding the resource to, to DefaultResourceStickyPerAccount .
add a new <resource> section and set appropriate values for resource properties.
add a propertyList section to the new resource with the name="DefaultResource.Packages" attribute and a list of items that will list the provisioning description and package name combinations for which this resource will be default.
for the new resource to be used, the IIS server where Provisioning service is, needs to be restarted.

Example: adding new Litespeed cluster to provisioning which has provisioning description named ProvisioningDescription.xml and which contains packages DnsPackage , BasePackage , PremiumPackage

Before:

         <bindings>
         <moduleList>
         <module name="Atomia.Provisioning.Modules.LiteSpeed.LiteSpeed" resourceAsignmentPolicy="RoundRobin" />
         </moduleList>
         <resourceList>
         <resource name="LSServers101">
         <property name="URL">https://linuxagents.atm.example.com/server.php</property>
         <property name="ClusterIpAddress">192.168.0.1</property>
         </resource>
         </resourceList>
         </bindings>

After:

         <bindings>
         <moduleList>
         <module name="Atomia.Provisioning.Modules.LiteSpeed.LiteSpeed" resourceAsignmentPolicy="DefaultResourceStickyPerAccount" />
         </moduleList>
         <resourceList>
         <!-- old resource -->
         <resource name="LSServers101">
         <property name="URL">https://linuxagents.atm.example.com/server.php</property>
         <property name="ClusterIpAddress">192.168.0.1</property>
         </resource>
         <!-- new, default resource -->
         <resource name="LSServers102">
         <property name="URL">https://linuxagents2.atm.example.com/server.php</property>
         <property name="ClusterIpAddress">192.168.0.2</property>
         <propertyList name="DefaultResource.Packages">
         <propertyListItem>ProvisionDescription.DnsPackage</propertyListItem>
         <propertyListItem>ProvisionDescription.BasePackage</propertyListItem>
         <propertyListItem>ProvisionDescription.PremiumPackage</propertyListItem>
         </propertyList>
         </resource>
         </resourceList>
         </bindings>
