Steps in Installing FusionCompute

The document outlines the two main steps to install FusionCompute: 1) Install the compute node agents (CNAs) by logging into virtual machines via VNC, restarting them, booting from CD-ROM, and selecting install. This involves configuring the hard drive, network settings, hostname, timezone, and password. 2) Install the virtual resource manager (VRM) by decompressing software packages, selecting components, configuring the VRM with IP address and password, and clicking install. This takes 20-40 minutes to complete and provides login information for the VRM web interface.

Steps in Installing FusionCompute

In the video that I’ve watched, they covered two steps in installing FusionCompute that is to
install host or the CAN nodes and then to install VRM. The video presentation begin by logging
into three VMs by means of VNC viewer. IP address plus port number is used to do that. Upon
logging in a VM via VNC viewer, we have to restart the VM by pressing Control-Alt-Delete and
then enter the boot menu by pressing esc in the course of the restart, then set up VM from CD-
ROM drive by selecting 3. After that, we will see a select menu showing Boot from Local disk,
install, and install (recover). We have to pick the second option which is install, given that it is
the first time we’re installing the CNA. Following that, the system will give necessary
preparations and then needed to be configured. The hard drive and the password manual
configuration are required but the others are suggested to be filled upon as well. First is to keep
the default settings since the VM consist of only one local disk. Next is to choose the network
information whether it is IPv4 or IPv6 in this case we can pick either of the two because the
FusionCompute 6.5.1 can support both. The video picked IPv4 as an example then selected the
network card and type the IP address and subnet mask manually. Next to that is to set the
default gateway. After the network item, the hostname is needed to be configured. Following
that is to set the timezone according to your location. Subsequently, the password will be
configured. In this item, one have to be really careful in setting up the password for the root
user, because if not, you have to reinstall the CNA all over again. After setting up the password,
the OS installation will now begin and will mostly take 5 up to 10 minutes. Upon completion,
the system automatically restarts and will go into command line interface mode. We have to
log in using the password set prior to OS installation. Thereafter the installation of the CNA is
the installation of the VRM which is the second step of the FusionCompute installation. First
step is to know how to utilize the installer tool, but prior to that decompress the software
packages or the zip files then proceeding to the launch of the installer. The path in this folder
can’t be in Chinese characters that’s why we got to have to set the language to be able to select
the components to install. After the verification, the page for VRM configuration will be
showed. We have to click the standalone for installation mode. Next to that is to type the VRM
IP address, subnet mask, and the gateway. After that the system will verify the information,
required is the CNA IP address and the password as a root user. Then we have to click the VRM
installation, upon waiting for completion which will cover about 20 to 40 minutes, the installer
will show the VRM information such as the name, password, and login address. Upon clicking
the login address, we will be placed into the VRM login page. There we have to confirm the End
User Agreement. Lastly, we have to input our username which is admin and password which
can found from the installer. Take a note that the password provided in here is quite long and
required to be typed manually. After the first time of logging in, we will be asked to change the
default password which also requires to be filled manually. That is the end of the steps in
installing the FusionCompute.
