Challenge 11 script

Below is the output and results from script #11 from the api-challenge.

The script can be repeatedly run with the option -d otherwise it stops if any of the cloud objects it wants to create already exist.

    Challenge 11: Write an application that will: Create an SSL terminated load balancer 
    (Create self-signed certificate).
    Create a DNS record that should be pointed to the load balancer. Create Three servers 
    as nodes behind the LB.

    Each server should have a CBS volume attached to it. (Size and type are irrelevant.)
    All three servers should have a private Cloud Network shared between them.
    Login information to all three servers returned in a readable format as the result 
    of the script, including connection information. Worth 6 points


Depending on the obligatory -n options it will create cloud objects with predictable names.
Below is an example what objects it creates and what the naming conversion is.

# # python challenge11.py

    usage: challenge11.py [-h] [-v] [-d] [ -k key-key  ] [ -c cert ] [ -i image-id ][ -f flavor-id ] -n FQDN-name

    image-id -f flavor-id
        -h - usage help
        -v - verbose / debug output
        -d - delete objects if they existed in cloud before creating new one
        -k - certificate pritate key (see -c below)
        -c - public certificate ( see -k above)
        -n - FQDN name like www.myexample.com
        -i - specify image-id or use the default for Ubuntu 10.04
        -f - specify flavor-id or use the default for the smallest cloud server
