Notes:
- if you change IP address or domain, need to change it in the apache dokuwiki.conf

Start up:
1) Requested ticket for project on the Melbourne Research Cloud (MRC), specs input for website use case - no suitable cloud/hosting service available by UniMelb i.e. Confluence is staff-only, sharepoint too clunky etc.
2) Choose wiki platform to be used (Dokuwiki, most user friendly & fit for our purpose)
3) Assigned allocation for total 2 vCPUs, 100Gb storage, 16Gb RAM. Allocation for unimelb-TURBO-wiki will expire every 12 months - 20/11/25: someone needs to keep extending it.
4) Set up VM instance with Ubuntu 24.04 LTS, assigned internal network interface (172.XXX… ip address) with ssh security groups (can only access via VPN or UniMelb network)
5) Generated public/private keypairs for ssh access (need to link with instance on MRC)
6) Installed dokuwiki onto VM via ssh
