# get ready status
sh get_status.sh

# create instances
sh create_instance.sh inst1 192.168.2.1
sh create_instance.sh inst2 192.168.2.2

# list instances
sh list_instances.sh
sh list_instances.sh inst1

# modify instance
# edit instance_template.json to add or remove backend servers
sh modify_instance.sh inst1 192.168.2.3

# show instance changes
sh get_instance.sh inst1

# stop & start instance
sh stop_instance.sh inst1
sh start_instance.sh inst1

# delete instances
sh delete_instance.sh inst1
sh delete_instance.sh inst2
