Re: Initial setup for coping over files

[Sebastian Stadil]

It's done through snapshots of the running server.

Another newbie question here.

How does scalr copy files and mods over from the first machine? Is it automatic or do I need to script installs and such on hostup?

For example:

on App-Server-1, I apt-get install php5-gd and git clone my websites onto my vhosts and change the websites folder permissions to their appropriate settings. Then I use the site and maybe upload an image to the image folder.

now because of autoscaling, a new instance is started. Does all that get cloned over automatically, or do I need to setup a "hostup" script to do so on every instance creation?

Correct. I'd encourage you to read up on the Amazon documentation to get an understanding of how the system works.

So to clarify, after any changes I make on the first server (or any server thereafter) I should make sure a snapshot is taken so that new instances are created?

Is there anything that is not copied over on snapshots?
