Basic Linux VM

This basic Nutanix Calm blueprint is one we use for testing, especially when writing content and creating demos. It deploys a single CentOS 7 Linux VM, updates base Linux packages and installs a basic firewall. The intention is to use this blueprint as a basis for other apps that need the same base OS.

Note: The credential password that will be required during blueprint import is nutanix/4u.
