Manually provision the physical nodes¶

Start the manual provisioning of the physical nodes with the control plane kvm02 and kvm03 physical nodes, and then proceed with the compute cmp01 node deployment.

To manually provision the physical nodes through MAAS:

1. Verify that the boot order in the physical nodes’ BIOS is set in the following order:
   1. PXE
   2. The physical disk that was chosen as the boot target in the Maas UI.
2. Log in to the MAAS web UI.
3. Click on a node.
4. Click the Take Action drop-down menu and select Deploy.
5. In the Choose your image area, verify that Ubuntu 16.04 LTS 'Xenial Xerus' with the Xenial(hwe-16.04) kernel is selected.
6. Click Go to deploy the node.
7. Repeat the above steps for each node.

Now, proceed to Deploy physical nodes.
