Installation Steps
1. Create a virtual machine (VM).

2. Map the downloaded ISO to the VM datastore.

3. Boot the VM from the ISO to initiate the installation process.

4. Obtain sudo permissions by running the following command:

sudo su

5. Navigate to the opt folder using the following command:

cd /opt

6. Check for the existence of the installation script (post-install.sh) using

the following command:

ls

7. Run the installation script:

./post-install.sh

After you run the installation script, you will be asked to select the
Deployment Type out of the following:

1. Single-Box

2. Distributed
 3. Collector

The Installation steps will vary based on the deployment type you wish to
configure, whether Single-Box HA or Distributed HA. Let us look into them
one after the other.

Single-Box High Availability

1. Select the Deployment Type(in this case, 1. Single-Box) that you want
to configure and then follow the steps further as demonstrated below.

2. Select the Deployment Architecture(in this case, 2. High Availability)

that you want to configure and then follow the steps further as
demonstrated below.

3. For Single-Box HA, you need to configure three servers, one as an

observer, one as the primary server and another one as the secondary
server.

 Select the option 1. Observer if you want to start the installation for
the Observer.

 Select the option 2. Primary Server in the next step if you want to start
the installation for the primary server.

 Select the option 3. Secondary Server in the next step if you want to
start the installation for the secondary server.

After selecting an option in 10th step above, move to the respective tab
below to continue the installation based on the component that you have
selected.
