The steps described in this page will walk you through the process of deploying DPOD's software on the appliance created in the Appliance Installation phase.

Log in to the DPOD's server console with the user "root" (e.g.: using VMware console, KVM, or the physical server console).
Do not use SSH to connect to the DPOD server, as for security reasons, SSH sessions are limited to 300 seconds and your session might time out during installation. If you must use SSH, you can configure the timeout limit by following the steps in SSH Session to DPOD Disconnects Often.
run "df -h" and make sure the three required disks were mounted and are in the correct order (OS, Install and Data disks, as explained on Hardware and Software Requirements)
Run the installApp command to start the product installation:
```
installApp
```
Adjust Date, Time and TimeZone if required

If you choose to change current time zone configuration you will be prompted for time zone selection :
1. Select your country's region, for example: Pacific Ocean (number 10)
2. Select your country, for example: Singapore (number 40)
DPOD will suggest a time zone based on your country selection, and display an 'Is the above information OK?' prompt. You may confirm the time zone configured by choosing 1 for “yes” or 2 for “no”.
If you reject the proposed time zone,you will nee to select the right one for you.
- Enter the current date and time in the format of YYYY-MM-DD hh:mm:ss, for example: 2017-07-10 14:00:00
On the next screen you configure the NTP (Network Time Protocol) servers DPOD is going to use. Keeping the internal clocks of DPOD and the monitored appliances in sync is important - as DPOD reports the time as logged by the devices themselves.
Enter your NTP servers information
1. DPOD displays a 'Do you want to continue with NTP configuration' prompt. Enter "y" to continue with NTP configuration or "n" to skip.
2. Enter at least one NTP server (more than 2 is recommended )
After you finish entering the NTP data, DPOD echoes it back on the screen for verification and displays an 'Is this correct [y/n]' prompt.
Enter “y” to confirm NTP details as entered or “n” to re-enter the information.
Choose an environment name for this DPOD installation, each DPOD installation must have a unique 4-character environment name

If you are installing a second DPOD machine that will be used as the standby machine in a DR Active/Standby scenario, the environment name must be identical to the environment name of the active DPOD installation.
Choose whether you use SSD storage
Read the End User License Agreement (EULA) and if you accept the term please press 1 to accept it. You may also press 0 to decline the agreement and abort the installation.
On the following screen, the installation program will prompt you to select an installation configuration file
t

In some special cases, DPOD's support team will send you a custom configuration file. This would be the time to FTP it to the appliance, following the instructions received from DPOD's support team.
Select the configuration option that fits your requirements (you may consult the information found in the Hardware and Software Requirements page).
1. Note that the list might change, and the options available to you may not match those shown above
2. Unless otherwise instructed by DPOD Software team, use the AIO_medium_resource_appliance.arch.props
3. If you choose to abort the installation at this stage (e.g. by using CTRL-C) and wish to start the process again at a later time, you will have to run the following command in order to undo changes and start the installation again:
  cd /app/scripts
  ./montier_env_uninstall.sh
4. Rerun installation from step 3 but this time using the command :
```
installApp --clean
```
Wait for the installation to finish.
1. Any errors will be logged to the installation log file, displayed at the end of the installation process.
2. The /installs/logs directory contains detailed install logs for each component.
After displaying the messages "Stopping/Starting ...", the installation will work in silent mode - without any further messages for ~ 5 minutes, this is a normal behavior.
When the installation is completed, you should see the following output:
r in screenshot
Login again as root or just use the "su -" command
```
su -
```
