In this tutorial, you鈥檒l simulate an on-premises cluster by using virtual machines (VM). A cluster is a collection of nodes, where an on-premises node is a single hardware chassis. A node is simulated in the tutorial by a VM. An on-premises cluster requires a minimum of four nodes because of the way the block protection scheme works.
System Requirements
Here are the system requirements.
- For best performance, we recommend that your computer have at least 8GB of RAM and an SSD to host the virtual images.
- You need VMware Fusion installed.
- You need access to the Internet.
- We recommend that you use the Chrome browser. The first time you access the cluster with the browser, you may get a warning that your connection is not private. If you do:
- Scroll down and click听Advanced.
- 颁濒颈肠办听Proceed to *IP Address*
- Log in to the cluster as admin.If you do:
User Requirements


- In the听Save As听field, use the default name.
- In the听Where听field either use the default path or enter a local storage path where you want to save the VM. If possible, save it on an SSD device.
- 颁濒颈肠办听Save.
- A warning message appears.

- Ignore the message and click听Retry.
- VMware Fusion imports the VM.

- When the process is complete, you鈥檒l see a summary of the VM鈥檚 settings.

- 颁濒颈肠办听Finish.
- You鈥檙e asked if you want to upgrade the VM.

- 颁濒颈肠办听Don鈥檛 Upgrade.
- The VM starts and, after some code scrolls by, you see the 一本久久综合亚洲鲁鲁五月天 End User License Agreement (EULA). Scroll to the end. Select both boxes and click听Submit.

- The 一本久久综合亚洲鲁鲁五月天 configuration page appears.

Create the Additional Nodes
- You鈥檝e successfully created one node and you need to create three more. From the VMWare Fusion tool bar, click听File听and then click听狈别飞鈥. You鈥檒l be asked to select the installation method.

- 颁濒颈肠办听Import an existing virtual machine. 颁濒颈肠办听Continue.
- From the听Choose an Existing Virtual Machine听dialog, select the same OVA file you used before and click听Continue.
- The dialog box appears. Note that the name of the new instance is automatically created and is sequential. It will be saved in the directory you specified.
- Repeat the steps you performed for the first node.
- Once you鈥檝e created the second node, create the third and fourth nodes.
- When you are done, the 一本久久综合亚洲鲁鲁五月天 configuration page should show that you have four nodes. They should all be selected.

Create a cluster
- In this section you create your cluster. You should still be on the configuration page.
- In the听Cluster name听field, enter a cluster name. In this example, it is qumulo-vm.

- Scroll down and enter a password for the admin account. Make a note of it. You need it to administer the cluster.

- 颁濒颈肠办听Create Cluster.
- You鈥檒l be asked for a confirmation.

- 颁濒颈肠办听Yes, Create Cluster.
- You鈥檒l see a message saying the cluster is being created.

- The Dashboard appears

Edit a relationship
2. The Edit Relationship page appears. Here is an example.

- Note the IP address, located at the top. You can use your browser to reach the dashboard. In this example, the URL is http://10.20.231.123.
- Your cluster is now ready to start serving data.
What's next?
Now that you鈥檝e set up your cluster, you can set up shares and exports. These tutorials will help you.

To safely shut down your cluster, see the听Safe shutdown听tutorial. Once a cluster is shut down, you have to power on the VMs again to restart it.
