    • Enterprise: abiquo
    • Cloud Administrator (Complete access to all functionality)
      • Username: admin
      • Password: xabiquo
    • Enterprise User (Virtual applications only)

Getting Started with Abiquo

Abiquo is a flexible platform that will allow you to configure your cloud infrastructure as required.

We recommend that the system administrator logs in first as Cloud Administrator, using the default credentials above, and then changes the password and user details in Users View.

The cloud administrator will then need to create both physical infrastructure and users, but either of these can be created first.

  • Before you create users, you can also create enterprises and roles to suit your cloud requirements. For information about creating users, enterprises and roles, please see Users View in this User's Guide.
  • For information about creating physical infrastructure, please see Infrastructure View in this User's Guide.

The Abiquo Quick Tutorial is an introductory overview of working with Abiquo infrastructure and virtualization from a multi-user perspective.
