  • 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.

  • You MUST add a space and write kyvos after pasting the key text.
    For example:
    ssh-rsa AAAAB3NzaC1yc2EAAAADAQABAAABAQD7iAIVxW/35boDkvBDqAglXO+DoHMlDZe1fEqo9dW/lPU9w8/LF8Z/mwf kyvos
