Hi.

Thanks a lot for your replies, it was veru usefull for me.
I thought jclouds works in this way.
jclouds will choose an instance type that meets the requirements, but which is the predicate or the filter that jclouds uses to select the correct (the best matching) instance (e.g a medium or a large instance) ? I have taken a look to the source code to understand the mechanism which is used to resolve this issue, but I do not get to find it.
I'd like to show the potential candidates to be intanciated.

Thank you again.
Jose.

When do you define a template Jclouds searchs and builds a node (fox
example a AMI in Amazon) which matchs with the template specification?

From my understanding, it doesn't *build* a "custom" node, it simply searches for an existing AMI that matches the requirements that you set in the template.

For things like memory size which are based (in EC2) on the instance that is instantiated, jclouds will choose an instance type (micro, medium etc.) that meets the requirements, if that is possible.

Hope that helps. jclouds EC2 experts will hopefully be able to expand on/correct my comments!
