Deployment and configuration

The Acronis Cyber Infrastructure workflow includes the infrastructure setup and service provisioning. After the infrastructure setup, you will have a storage cluster with configured network and the highly available management node. On top of the storage cluster, you can deploy and configure different services for provisioning to end users. You can provision backup, block, object, and file storage space, as well as compute resources.

Prerequisites

• Acronis Cyber Infrastructure is installed on each server, as described in Installation.

Infrastructure setup overview

1. Set up your networks, depending on the service you wish to provision.
2. Configure your node network interfaces and assign networks to them.
3. Configure an external DNS server.
4. Enable RDMA, if required.
5. Deploy the storage cluster.
6. If you have three and more cluster nodes, enable high availability of the management node.

After the infrastructure is set up, you can proceed to provision backup, block, object, file storage space, or compute resources.
