ssh-keygen -t rsa -b 4096 -m pem -f tutorial_kp && mv tutorial_kp.pub modules/compute/tutorial_kp.pub && mv tutorial_kp tutorial_kp.pem && chmod 400 tutorial_kp.pem

Run Terraform

• Initialize terrafom: terraform init
• Run: terraform apply -var-file="secrets.tfvars"
• When prompted, enter: yes

To SSH into the Jenkins Server
