Deploy a node
Once a node has been commissioned, you can deploy it.
The deployment operation includes installing an operating system
and copying the SSH keys imported to MAAS.
As a result, you can access the deployed node through SSH using the default
user account ubuntu.
To deploy a node:
- In the MAAS web UI, open the Nodes page.
- In the list of nodes, verify that the commisioned node is in
the Ready state.
- Click on the node to open the configuration window.
- In the node configuration window, click the Take action button
at the top-right conner and select the Deploy item.
- Specify the OS, release, and kernel options.
- Click Go to start the deployment.
Once the deployment is finished, MAAS will change the node status
to Deployed.
