  2. Check where node should be installed for your environment:

  3. Install using one of the following options:

    Regardless of the installation option you choose:

    • The node requires staging space - assume a number of concurrent export and store tasks and multiply it by the biggest VM size (for example: 6 export tasks + 4 store tasks * 100 GB should require around 1 TB)
    • The Staging space configuration will guide you to prepare storage on the spare drive
    • vPlus is installed in the /opt/vprotect folder and staging space is assumed to be in /vprotect_data - these are the defaults and should not be changed.

  4. Run the configuration wizard (Initial configuration), where you can (or do manually the following steps):
