Installation Overview
Before beginning your installation, you should prepare thoroughly. Several resources are available to assist you.
Work through the information in the Book “Planning an Installation with Cloud Lifecycle Manager”. Planning an Installation with Cloud Lifecycle Manager covers prerequisites, considerations, and choices that are necessary to install your cloud successfully.
Study the example configurations in the table below offered by HPE Helion OpenStack 8. These example configurations are a key aspect of installing HPE Helion OpenStack with the least amount of time and effort.
Familiarize yourself with Git. Git is a version control system for tracking and managing changes to your cloud configuration, even with installation methods (such as the Install UI) that do not require direct interaction with version control. For more information about Git, see Chapter 10, Using Git for Configuration Management.
