Warning
Ghost 2.X has reached its end of life cycle and is no longer supported or updated, we recommend using Ghost 5.X
In the available images, there is the option to deploy a server with Ghost under the Linux operating system – specifically with Ubuntu LTS 18.04. Once you have the server deployed, the installation of Ghost will start, which can last between 10 and 15 minutes and you can see the timing from the Emergency Console.
Once the Ghost installation is complete, you can access the Ghost web panel with the following information:
- URL: http://vm.ip.address
