launch the separate Administration Dashboard to perform a number of post-installation tasks. And from that 

point forward, you will use the Administration Dashboard to manage your cloud environment, including the 

Moonshot server cartridges.

The documented post-installation tasks are designed to familiarize you with the Administration Dashboard, 

which you'll use from that point forward to manage your cloud. The tasks are also designed to help you verify 

that your recently deployed cloud environment is functioning properly.

Overall Installation Process and Approximate Time

Assuming a typical configuration, the overall setup process involves the following steps. The total time to 

complete the setup once HW is installed, configured and the hypervisor is ready is four to six hours. In this list, 

approximate execution times are shown here for reference, once the installation from the HP Cloud OS for 

Moonshot ISO has begun.

Collect the required information for the network configuration

Setup the Moonshot chassis, cartridges and configure the internal switches

Configure the server hardware and the physical networking as required

Setup a server with either VMware ESXi or Linux KVM as a hypervisor

Configure the networking within the hypervisor to support the required networking configuration

Create three virtual machines to host the Admin, Controller and Compute VMs

Create a VM to use as an access node for installation of the HP Cloud OS for Moonshot software ISO

Install and configure the Admin node (60 minutes)

Add (discover and allocate) the Controller and Compute VMs (30 minutes)
