This appendix covers how to deploy an HCP VM node using the command line. This appendix assumes you are using a Linux machine as your local computer. You must repeat these instructions to create one HCP VM node on each KVM host.
Before you deploy an HCP VM using the command line, do the following:
- Install the KVM packages. See Installing KVM.
- Create network bridges. See Configuring KVM networking.
- Copy and unzip an .iso file on your HCP node. See Copying the .iso file and sending the Zip file to the KVM host.
