You should keep reading if your resources include IAAS and IAAC type of resources, like Virtual Machines.
If this is the case, then you need to:
- provide a certificate, or a proxy, to start the pilot;
- such certificate/proxy should have the `GenericPilot` property;
- provide a proxy to start the pilot;
- such proxy should have the `GenericPilot` property;
- in case of multi-VO environment, the Pilot should set the `/Resources/Computing/CEDefaults/VirtualOrganization` (as done e.g. by `vm-pilot <https://github.com/DIRACGrid/DIRAC/blob/integration/src/DIRAC/WorkloadManagementSystem/Utilities/CloudBootstrap/vm-pilot#L122>`_);
- find a way to start the pilots: DIRAC will make sure to create VirtualMachine contextualized to start DIRAC Pilots.
