<para>Create at least one keypair for each project. If you have
|
|

belong to a project.</para>

<para>Create a key.</para>
|
|
<para>To create a <literal>mykey</literal> key that you can
|
|
associate with instances, run the following command:</para>
|
|
<screen><prompt>$</prompt> <userinput>nova keypair-add mykey > mykey.pem</userinput></screen>
|
|
<para>Save the <filename>mykey.pem</filename> file to a secure

|
|
the <literal>mykey</literal> key is associated.</para>
