Purpose

The current procedure to deploy an EKIT vServer is a very time consuming process consisting of many of manual steps to install perl, java, python, iaas rpms , jdk etc. To ease the user experience, we have created two ready to deploy EKIT templates for both EECS 2.0.6.3.x and 2.0.6.4.x releases. These templates remove approximately 90% of the manual tasks required for EKIT deployment. This templates reduce the time to deploy of EKIT to approximately 45 minutes from several hours.

Scope

The scope of this document is limited to the creation and configuration of an EKIT vServer using a QuickStart template. Information on how to use EKIT can be found in the following document:
