FCP-Core Management Node Deployment Guide

Prepare the Management Node​

  • OS requirements: Ubuntu 22.04 or Red Hat 8

  • Install dependencies with the following commands:

    # Ubuntu
    sudo apt install -y nfs-common unzip netfilter-persistent
    sudo systemctl enable nfs-client.target

    # Red Hat 8
    sudo dnf install -y iptables-services iptables-utils
    sudo systemctl start iptables && sudo systemctl enable iptables

    # Reboot after installation
    sudo reboot

  • Minimum hardware requirements:

    • Disk: at least 80 GB
    • Memory: at least 32 GB
    • CPU: x86 architecture, with at least 8 threads (vCPUs)

  • Required open ports: see FCP Product Network Planning

  • The installer relies on the default gateway to detect the node IP address (so you don't have to configure it manually). Make sure the management node has a default gateway configured, otherwise installation may fail.

The FCP-Core management node can be deployed on common virtualization platforms (for example, ESXi or KVM).

Deploy​

  1. Download the installation package.
  2. Upload the package to the management node under /opt, then run the following commands:
cd /opt
tar -zxvf fastone-fcp-{VERSION}.tgz
cd fastone-{VERSION}/install
./install-fcp.sh [-s ssh_port]

Installation typically takes 10 to 30 minutes. The installation log is install-fcp.log in the same directory.

Expected Result​

The installation completes successfully and prints the service IP address, usernames, and initial passwords.

First Login​

After installation, open the Fastone login page in your browser: http://<management-node-server-ip>. If the Fastone login page displays syntax errors, it may be a browser compatibility issue. See Supported Browsers and Versions.

Default administrator account: admin
Password: <FASTONEADMIN_PASSWORD>

Default environment configuration account: deploy
Password: <FASTONEADMIN_PASSWORD>
Use the deploy account for the initial environment setup.

The default passwords for the accounts above are displayed when the installation script finishes. They can also be found in install-fcp.log. You can also refer to the Password Retrieval Guide. If you cannot access that page, contact the corresponding customer service manager, delivery manager, or technical support engineer.

These passwords are valid only for the first login. Change the default passwords of both the administrator account and the environment configuration account during the first login.
Reconfiguration does not reset the initial passwords. After changing them, keep the new passwords properly stored.

Next Steps​

After deployment, import the license into the system. The system can be used normally only after the license is imported and activated. See License Restrictions for the import procedure.
