Running the landscape-config program without arguments will start the

program, prompting you for the necessary information to run the client.

Optionally you can provide command-line arguments (detailed below) to
18
specify default responses. You will be told if the registration was
19
successful or if an error occurred. When registration is successful
20
Landscape is configured and running on your system. Errors can occur if
21
you provide incorrect registration details.

You will be told if the registration was successful or if an error occurred.
20
When registration is successful Landscape is configured and running on your
21
system. Errors can occur if you provide incorrect registration details or if
22
there are network issues. In the latter case, the client will keep trying
23
to complete the registration in the background.

Landscape has some cloud features that become available when the EC2 or
82
UEC machine instance was started using Landscape and the AMI is one of
83
the official ones provided in the Web user interface. We call these
84
instances "Landscape enabled", because they contain a pre-configured
85
landscape-client installed in them which will register the running instance
86
automatically with Landscape as soon as it starts up.
88
You can deploy your own AMI, but if you wish the instance to become
89
"Landscape managed" you need to take a few steps:
90
* make sure the cloud is created in Landscape
91
* either add "CLOUD=1" to /etc/default/landscape-client or use the
92
--cloud switch in the landscape-config(1) command line
93
* make sure the client is configured to start at boot (i.e., the
94
/etc/default/landscape-client has the line "RUN=1")
96
There is no need to further configure the /etc/landscape/client.conf file
97
with details such as account or password, because when in cloud mode
98
this is all discovered by the client itself.
100
You can avoid this all if you just rebundle the AMIs we provide.
101
landscape-client is already configured and prepared for the cloud in
