1) Once the instance is running, connect to it via ssh
   $ sudo ssh -i "your .pem key file" ec2-user@publicDNS

2) If you wish to use your own data dir then upload it with scp
   Give write permission to the destination of instance
   $ sudo chmod a+w /usr/local

   At the source of your data dir
   $ sudo scp -r -i "your .pem key file" "your data dir" ec2-user@publicDNS:/usr/local

   Give permission to the uploaded data dir of instance
   $ sudo chmod -Rf a+rwx /usr/local/"your uploaded data dir"

3) Start Parallel Universe
   $ cd /usr/local/paralleluniverse-5.5-3.1.2-64bit

   Substitute with your own data dir if uploaded
   $ bin/mysqld_safe
   --no-defaults
   --mysqld=paralleluniversed
   --lc-messages-dir=/usr/local/paralleluniverse-5.5-3.1.2-64bit/share
   --datadir=/usr/local/paralleluniverse-5.5-3.1.2-64bit/data
   --socket=/tmp/paralleluniverse.sock --pid-file=/tmp/paralleluniverse.pid
   --port=3307 &

4) Connect to Parallel Universe with MySQL client
   $ bin/mysql --socket=/tmp/paralleluniverse.sock -u root
   Proceed to step 3 of Usage Guide.

5) If remote access is desired then create an account for remote user
   mysql> grant all on *.* to john_doe identified by "john_doe_password";

   Now the remote user can access Parallel Universe with MySQL client
   $ mysql --host="publicDNS" --port=3307 --user="john_doe" -p<carriage return>
   Proceed to step 3 of Usage Guide.

6) When done, quit out of MySQL client, shut down Parallel Universe and
   close ssh connection
   mysql> quit
   $ bin/mysqladmin --socket=/tmp/paralleluniverse.sock -u root shutdown
   $ exit

7) Terminate the instance
