Prerequisites

Before creating a Windows Virtual Machine, ensure that:

You have an active Cloudmatika account.
You have subscribed to the Virtual Data Center (VDC) service.

Creating a Windows Virtual Machine

Follow the steps below to create a Windows Virtual Machine in Cloud VDC:

Visit the Cloudmatika website at https://cloudmatika.co.id.
Click Login in the top-right corner of the page.
Enter your username and password.
After logging in, ensure that your active subscription is set to CloudServer VDC.
Click the Cloud menu and then select New Server.

Configuring Your Virtual Machine

On the New Server page, you can define the hardware specifications and operating system settings for your Windows Virtual Machine.

Configuration Parameters

Parameter	Description
Server Name	The name assigned to the server. The server name must be unique and cannot duplicate an existing server name. It may contain letters, numbers, and hyphens, with a maximum length of 63 characters.
Description	A description of the server.
Backup Schedule	The schedule used for automatic server backups.
Specify Custom Hostname	Allows you to define a custom hostname. You may use a Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN), such as server1.cloudmatika.com, or simply a hostname such as server1. If left blank, the Server Name will be used as the hostname.
Preset Configurations	Predefined server configurations based on common use cases, including CPU cores, CPU frequency, disk space, and other resources.
CPU Cores	The number of CPU cores allocated to the server.
CPU Frequency	The processing power allocated to the server.
Disk Space	The amount of storage space allocated to the server, measured in gigabytes (GB).
RAM	The amount of memory allocated to the server.
I Will Manage the OS Kernel	Select this option to create a Virtual Machine. Leave it unchecked to create a container.
Operating System	The operating system to be installed on the server.
Register in Domain	The domain where the server will be registered. This option is available if you have configured DNS services.
Bandwidth	The maximum bandwidth allocation in Mbps.
Number of IPv4 Addresses	The number of public IPv4 addresses assigned to the server.
Allow to Configure the Network Settings from Within the Server	Allows you to configure network settings from inside the server, except for IP addresses. If not selected, network settings will be configured automatically by the Cloud Infrastructure platform.
Estimated Monthly Price	The estimated monthly cost based on the selected configuration.

Hostname Notes

To make the server accessible from external networks, you must select a domain in the Register in Domain field.
If no domain is selected, only servers within the same subnet can access the server using its hostname.
Hostnames may contain letters, numbers, hyphens, and periods, with a maximum length of 63 characters.
If no hostname is specified, the Server Name will be used automatically.

Network Notes

All servers are automatically assigned a private IPv4 address with speeds of up to 10 Gbps.

Servers can communicate with one another using these private IP addresses. However, if a public IP address is not assigned, the server will not be accessible from the Internet.

Currently, manual network configuration is supported for:

Linux Virtual Machines and Containers
Windows Virtual Machines

Pricing Notes

The displayed monthly price is an estimate based on the selected configuration.

Please note that the displayed price does not include discounts or dynamic resource usage generated through Business Automation features such as automatic scaling (Scale Up / Scale Down). Therefore, the final billed amount may differ from the estimated price.
