* Create a file which well inject later:
<syntaxhighlight>
[root@server2-a ~(keystone_myuser)]$ cp /etc/issue /tmp/
[root@server2-a ~(keystone_myuser)]$ echo "Installed using nova command-line" >> /tmp/issue
</syntaxhighlight>

* Create a key-pair:
<syntaxhighlight>
[root@server2-a ~(keystone_myuser)]$ nova keypair-add key1 > /root/key1
