Once created, you can validate if the resources meet the requirements for installing Kyvos on the Google cloud platform.

To deploy the Kyvos cluster using password-based authentication for service nodes, ensure that the permissions listed here are available on all the VM instances for the Linux user deploying the cluster.

To deploy the Kyvos cluster using custom hostnames for resources, ensure that the steps listed here are completed on all the resources created for use in the Kyvos cluster.

Next Steps

  1. Ensure that all the prerequisites are available.

  2. Create Dataproc (compute cluster).
