HP VSD Installation Using QCow2 Image 17
Configure NTP Server
Include one or more NTP servers in the /etc/ntp.conf file. For example, edit the NTP file and
add servers as follows, restarting the NTPD service to put these parameters into effect:
server 10.10.0.10
server 192.16.10.10
server 192.16.20.10
Install HP VSD using qcow2
The install script is interactive. Node 1 is the master node, and it serves as a template for the
other nodes.
Note: HP VSD consists of several components and providing high availability for each of
these components can be quite complex. It is imperative that the installation and
powering-on of each node be done in the order specified here.
1. Install HP VSD on Node 1.
The install script checks for the XMPP proxy entry in your DNS. Run
<TTY>/opt/vsd/
install.sh -x xmpp.myd.example.com
, substituting your own XMPP server name.
[root@myh1 ~]# <TTY>/opt/vsd/install.sh -x xmpp.myd.example.com
