After Bare Metal Orchestrator is deployed, you can use the CLI or the web UI to continue the setup. To use the web UI for the first time, use the initial Identity and Access Management (IAM) admin user account that was created when you installed Bare Metal Orchestrator.
- You require the user credentials of the initial IAM admin user that was created when you installed Bare Metal Orchestrator. For more information, see Access and accounts.
- In a single node deployment, the Bare Metal Orchestrator hostname must be mapped to the IP address of the Bare Metal Orchestrator VM.
- In an HA deployment, the Bare Metal Orchestrator hostname must be mapped to the Virtual IP (VIP) address of the Load Balancers.
- You must add the Bare Metal Orchestrator hostname to the hosts file on your management console before you can access Bare Metal Orchestrator using the web UI. Use the default hostname bmo-globalcontroller or the hostname that was assigned during Bare Metal Orchestrator installation. You also need the IP address of the Global Controller node (CP1). For high availability deployments, you need the Virtual IP (VIP) address of the Load Balancers. For more information and how to update the hosts file, see Updating the Bare Metal Orchestrator hostname and web UI access.
