- Operation:
- POST /api/sc/instances
- Description:
- Creates a vCloud Air instance using the provided InstanceSpecParamsType. An instance can only be
created with a plan id which is provided as a attribute of the InstanceSpecParamsType. A plan
is a representation of a service offering (Compute, Database, etc.,). Plans of the same
service type, offered in different regions are considered different plans, and likely will
have different plan ids and region names, but could have the same values for other
attributes. For each each plan id, region and service group id combination, only a single
instance can be created. Trying to create a second instance with the same combination will
result in an error. Only Admin users are allowed to create an instance.
