TheCLOUDSTACK_ENDPOINT,CLOUDSTACK_KEY,CLOUDSTACK_SECRETandCLOUDSTACK_METHOD.CLOUDSTACK_TIMEOUTenvironment variables. ACLOUDSTACK_CONFIGenvironment variable pointing to an.inifile. Acloudstack.inifile in the current working directory. A.cloudstack.inifile in the users home directory. Optionally multiple credentials and endpoints can be specified using ini sections incloudstack.ini. Use the argumentapi_regionto select the section name, default section iscloudstack.
