Euca2ools Guide / IAM-Compatible Commands |
Adds a new access key to the user sending the request, unless otherwise specified. Eucalyptus prints the secret access key to the console. We recommend that you write this to a file.
euare-useraddkey [-w] [-d DOMAIN] [-l] [--as-account ACCOUNT] [-U URL] [--region USER@REGION] [-I KEY_ID] [-S KEY] [--security-token TOKEN] [--debug] [--debugger] [--version] [-h] USER
