Do I need a CloudRail Subscription if I use my own azure account

Yes, CloudRail always requires a CloudRail subscription. This is due to the fact that CloudRail is a managed service. The subscription includes things like the Device Management Cloud, support, remote security and feature updates and much more. There is a free developer plan for testing available.

How to make CloudRail as a Revolution Pi Connect and what to pay special attention to?

• When you flash one of our devices, you need to configure the device with

  • Device type

  • Serial number

  • Mac address

• For a CloudRail device, you should use the following values:

  • Device type: Connect

  • Serial number: any (e.g: 1234)

  • Mac address: any valid Mac address

• Note: The username is pi and the password is raspberry. Please pay attention to your keyboard layout when entering the password. E.g.: raspberrz instead of raspberry for an english keyboard.

• If there are problems with registration in PiCtory after that, proceed as follows:

  • If you have SSH connection:

    You need to edit the login.json file:
    Location: /var/www/data/login.json
    Use a MD5 hash generator for the new password of your choice and enter it in the login.json file after the admin field and save it.

    You can then login with the PiCtory with admin and the new password of your choice. Reference 2: see here the same issue: Lost access to RevPi Login admin
