Step 6
When the application installation is complete, you will be prompted for the following post-installation parameters:
High Availability Role Selection—Enter yes at the prompt if you want this installed server to serve as the failback 
secondary server in a high availability implementation. You will be prompted to provide an authentication key to 
be used for high availability registration. If you enter no at the prompt, the server will act as the primary server 
(standalone) and the installation will proceed with the following prompts:
Web Interface Root Password—Enter and confirm the password used for the default root administrator. This is the 
account used to log in to the Prime Infrastructure web user interface for the first time and set up other user 
accounts. 
Enabling FIPS Mode—Specify yes if you want to install Prime Infrastructure in a Federal Information Processing 
Standards (FIPS) 140-2 compliant mode of operation (before selecting this option, be sure you have read and 
understand the section 
). 
Step 7
Select Yes to proceed with the installation, or select No to re-enter high availability and FIPS mode options.
Step 8
When the installation is complete, the appliance reboots and you are presented with a login prompt. 
Step 9
Log in to the virtual machine using the “admin” username and password that you specified in Step 4.
Step 10
Run the ncs status command (see
in the 
) to verify that the processes have restarted. You should see the following process statuses:
Non-FIPS (Standalone): All Processes are up and running.
FIPS (Standalone): FTP, TFTP, and PnP are disabled. Other processes are running.
Secondary server: Health Monitor Process is running. (This is the only process that should be running on the 
secondary server.)
