  1. Download the RStudio Heat template.
  2. Create a volume to be attached to the new instance. All RStudio data will be saved in this volume.
  3. Click on Orchestration→ Stacks→ Launch Stacks.
  4. Select rstudio-ubuntu1604.yaml as the Template File. You do not need to input an Environment File. Click Next to continue.

  5. Enter parameters for the new stack. For "Password for user", enter your Rapid Access Cloud account password. For "Create password for RStudio", enter a password for the RStudio application.

  6. Find the new RStudio instance under Compute → Instances.

    Note

    Even though the instance may be running, the bootstrap process in the instance has to complete to install RStudio.

    Login to the instance and run this command: 

    Code Block
    watch -n 5 "ps aux | grep bootstrap"

    You will see a root process running:  /bin/bash /tmp/bootstrap.sh

    When the bootstrap process has completed, it will disappear from the process list. If you don't see that process in the list, then it means the process has completed. That means that RStudio has been installed and is ready for use.
