To continue the installation process, return to the local machine where you have downloaded the

controller software package and go to “Unpacking the controller software on your local machine”

(page 14).

4.2 Unpacking the controller software on your local machine

Do the following to prepare the downloaded HP VAN SDN Controller software package for

installation:

1. Ensure that you have root access on the Ubuntu system (sudo).

2. Unpack the HP VAN SDN Controller from the directory in which the package is stored:

NOTE: In the following command, two hyphens precede the unpack keyword; that is,

--unpack.

~$ sudo dpkg -–unpack hp-sdn-ctl_2.4.x.yyyy_amd64.deb

(Where x.yyyy completes the actual release version number of the controller. For

example, 2.4.3.0595.)

3. Continue by going to the next section, “Installing and verifying the controller on your local

machine” (page 14).

4.3 Installing and verifying the controller on your local machine

NOTE: HP recommends creating a user on the Keystone server before installing the controller.
