The initial setup in the "Configuration Center" is crucial. The first steps typically include:
- Software License Authorization: The system requires a valid license to activate all features beyond the trial period.
- Resource Pooling: "Naning" or adding the physical resources like compute hosts, storage clusters, and network devices into the platform for management.
- Network Initialization: Configuring basic network information for nodes and availability zones to ensure everything can communicate.
- Image Configuration: Setting up the server that holds operating system images, which are templates used to create virtual machines.
